摘要
The fundamental importance of sex lies in the need for reproduction and species continuity. For humans, sexual expression is an important source of physical pleasure and emotional intimacy. Healthy sexual expression is closely related to well-being, health and overall quality of life in both men and women. Sexual activity is also considered an important determinant of quality of life. At present, questions about sex are still largely ignored in routine consultations in almost all medical specialties. The factors affecting sexual activity are complex and can be divided into the influence of bio-psycho-sociological factors. Biological influences include anthropometric parameters, sexual function, lifestyle, neuroendocrine system, and diseases;psychological influences include psychological status, mental illness, and sexual attitudes;sociological influences include factors such as marriage, occupation, and economic status. With the epidemic and outbreak of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), people’s way of life and work has changed, which also has a great impact on sexual activities. This article will provide a systematic review of factors related to male sexual activity.
