Sex is an integral part of our life and daily habits (Dinacharya)

The ideal time for sex intimacy is night and after two hours of dinner since it is the time of kapha humor.

When the sexual union is absolutely satisfying , developed over time, it bestows the couple with health and vitality.

Involving each other physically, emotionally and spiritually in the sexual intimacy can only give each of he partner the best results.

All the five senses should be involved in sex as touch, smell, food, music and ambience play a vital role in developing, increasing and prolonging intimacy.

Perverted or unsatisfying sex has adverse effects on mental and physical health, as it aggravates the vital energies or humors(doshas) and reduces immunity. When the vata humor is aggravated, it will make you more emotionally vulnerable and fear-prone; when pitta is aggravated, it will move you to anger and even frustration; and when kapha is increased, it will make you more possessive.

The frequency of sex depends on the constitution of he body and seasons of nature. Generally kapha type people, who possess more stamina than others, indulge in sex more frequently than the vata and pitta type people.

Vata type people might find satisfaction in changing partners. Pitta type people are usually in quest for more intensity I sex as it is difficult to quench their desire.

Use of Ayurveda medication (aphrodisiac supplements) can instantly induce sexual pleasure and excitement, increase sexual stamina and promote fertile seminal secretions. But Ayurveda strictly forbids misuse of sex in any way since misuse of the same may open up a deluge of emotional and psychological complications.
