Sex prevent preeclampsia. So preeclampsia is a condition where the blood pressure rises and then it causes other organs to be abnormal as well. This happened in pregnant ladies after 20 weeks of being pregnant. And it's very, very deadly because the blood pressure rise so much that can even lead to death.
