Lack of regular and quality sex can lead to medical conditions including triggering high blood pressure and prostate cancer.

Prolonged ‘dry spells’ range from being single by default or design, death of a spouse, impotence and other sexually dysfunctional causes, long-distance relationships, substance abuse and long jail terms.

Dr Paul Saoke, a medical consultant, adds “busy schedules, taking a break and religious beliefs against fornication and adultery” as other causes of ‘dry spells’ with attendant negative health implications including “anxiety, depression and stress.”
