i have not had sex in eight years. what happens if you do not have sex

Hi Anon,

Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community.

Long term sexual abstainence will result in some interesting things you may have not considered. To name a few , you could feel anxiety and may be more stressed out, your libido may lower and your immune system can become more vulnerable to name a few.

For women, the risk for UTI infections lowers and for men they could increase their risk for prostate cancer.

I hope this help.
