It is not possible to exhaustively list Do’s and Dont’s of Brahmacharya as they depend on the context. The more general precepts (Sāmānya Dharma) are listed by Patanjali as the 5 Yamas and 5 Niyamas, in his Yogasūtras.
In my thread, I gave a rationalization for Brahmacharya. 🙏

As the essay points out, Brahmacharya is not necessarily to be equated with celibacy.
For a married person (in the Gṛhasthāśrama of life), Brahmacharya does not mean celibacy, but rather adhering to the marital vow of having sex with just the spouse, as opposed to adultery.
