Brief Answer:
It is normal

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX
Thanks for using healthcaremagic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

First of all I like to congratulate you for your marriage and happy married life.

Having sex three to four times is absolutely normal and there is no condition called less sex or abnormal sex. Immediately after marriage people have different sex frequency depending on the work pressure, understanding between partners and other factors like privacy and lot more.

With time some couple have more love making episodes as few of them are slow reactive. It is possible that with time you and your partner may have more or less sexual encounters per week.
So it can be said that this is completely normal and there is nothing to worry.

Having said this for better sex life you need to have healthy body The mantra of healthy body is following things
1. Regular exercise
2. Healthy and nutritious diet
3. Stress free life

These three factors are likely to cause more betterment in your sexual life.
There is no role of medications in healthy men and they do not offer any advantage for healthy person.

Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
