I'm just curious about how often my wife and I can have sex in a month without causing any negative effects on our bodies now or in the future. I want to make sure we're both staying healthy, so how frequently is considered safe?

Having a healthy sexual relationship with your partner is important for overall well-being. There is no specific number of times that is considered ideal for sexual activity in a month as it varies for each couple. It is important to listen to your body and communicate openly with your partner to ensure that both of you are comfortable and enjoying the intimacy. As long as both partners are consenting and comfortable, there is no set limit on how many times you can engage in sexual activity in a month.
