I read a lot of articles which says itp patient should avoid sex due to risk of getting bruised. Leaving the injury part aside does having sex lower platelate. Also steriods lowers your sexual drive. So a weekly safe not so wild sex is good or bad for itp range of below 5.

I don't think about health stuff gets in the way of living a normal life and having fun everyone's different
I don't believe that part because I am living with less than 10k Platelets from more than 2 yrs and whether I don't have sex for month or I have it every 2 days doesn't change my platelet level in anyway. So I feel it's a myth or differs from person to person.
