Overview
If you have a health condition that makes you tired, or if you're recovering from illness or injury, here are some ideas for conserving energy when you have sex or intimate time.
- Think about what could help you be more comfortable.
Share your thoughts with your partner or partners, and come up with solutions together.
- Be well rested before having sex.
- Choose the time of day when you have more energy.
- If you have breathing problems, clear your lungs beforehand.

- Think about trying new ways of doing things.
Switch positions, or try other ways of being close, such as touching, kissing, and hugging.
- Stop and rest if you have trouble breathing or you feel tired.
