Can you have sex if you have a cold?

Sexual intercourse is not recommended because the body is weak during the cold, and the cold is spread mainly through the respiratory tract, which can easily lead to cross-infection of the spouse. Therefore, it is recommended to take more rest during the cold, try not to have intercourse, and wait until the symptoms of the cold gradually improve, and the patient’s body recovers before having sex. During the period of cold, due to the stimulation of pathogens, the patient can have electrolyte disorders and acid-base balance imbalance, which can cause clinical symptoms of dizziness, weakness and sleepiness, and the body is weak. If you have intercourse at this time and engage in more strenuous exercise, you may aggravate the symptoms of the cold, which is not conducive to recovery.
