A member asked:
Are there any scientific, biological reasons to be sexually abstinent before marriage?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: There is no biological reason. It is primarily a social one. The only clinical reasons, however, would be to reduce the risk of stds and for maintaining good mental health regarding relationships and love.
