Dr. Woodkey, the author of the article "The Medical Part of Human Sexual Love", pointed out that long-term avoidance of sexual life can cause prostate congestion, prostatitis, low back pain, perineal discomfort and scrotal pain. In his book, Can Abstinence Extend Life? The article points out that Gandhi, the father of India who advocated complete abstinence, believes that abstinence is not only beneficial to body and mind, but also can prolong life. Dr Robinson said that Gandhi's statement had no scientific basis, and that abstinence was enough to shorten life expectancy was closer to the truth.
