Excessive sex will not affect hemoglobin level in males

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.

1. Excessive sex will not cause any direct effect on hemoglobin level in males.

2. However testosterone level has an effect on hemoglobin level and testosterone induces erythrocytosis or red blood cell formation in males which causes increased hemoglobin.

3. In conclusion, your hemoglobin level is not affecte by excessive sex. The relation between excessive sex and testosterone level is not clearly understod.

Hope your query is answered.
