Do most people think it is normal for marriage to become tasteless and asexual as they get older?
But in fact, a survey in the United States shows that even in her 50s and 60s, she can still experience the beauty of sex. Some respondents even said that the best sexual experience occurred in her 60s.
[My parents have more sex than I do], such a setting may not be expected by many young people.
Can you still enjoy sexual pleasure when you are old? On this issue, we do still have many misunderstandings.
In Dr. Clove’s view, keeping an open mind, adapting to changes in body functions, and actively and reasonably coping with them, even if you enter the twilight of your life, you can still enjoy a life of sexual happiness.
After consulting endocrinologists, urologists and psychologists, we have specially compiled this article to help everyone eliminate misunderstanding and run towards sexual happiness.
Myth 1: As you get older, sex doesn’t matter.
This is a question of concept. Many people think that after the age of 50, there will be no more sex.
Not really.
The slow-paced lifestyle makes accompanying the other half a more important thing in life.
Compared with the [passion] when he was young, the [long flow of water] gradually unfolding from the former play after entering middle age can be more enjoyable.
Misunderstanding 2: As one gets older, one’s performance will decline.
Impotence is one of the most common sexual problems among middle-aged and elderly men.
The incidence rate will increase with age, but this does not mean that when one gets old, one will definitely [not lift].
When the blood supply to the penis is insufficient, the erection cannot be maintained in a hard state. At present, the principle of drugs on the market to help erection is to increase the blood supply to the penis.
But be sure to remember to go to the hospital for diagnosis and let the doctor write a prescription.
Due to changes in hormone levels, the sexual desire of middle-aged and elderly women may decline, and there may be dry vagina and insufficient lubrication, which will cause pain during sexual intercourse.
Hormone therapy, lubricants and condoms with lubricants can provide some help.
Remind me that some antidepressants, antihypertensive drugs and anticoagulants will affect the quality of sexual life. However, do not stop or change drugs without authorization. You can consult a doctor to see if it is necessary to adjust the medication plan.
Myth 3: The older you get, the more plain your sex is.
The results of the survey are just the opposite:
In a survey of elderly women with an average age of 67, more than 60% of the interviewees are satisfied with their sex life.
As you get older, although [hardware] is deteriorating, your experience is getting richer and richer, and the longer you get along with each other, the deeper your partner gets to know each other.
However, we Chinese are more subtle about sex, which may be the reason why many friends think [the older you get, the more plain sex becomes].
You may as well communicate more with your partner and try more. I believe you can have a better and better life.
In fact, besides sex, there are many other ways to enjoy intimate relationships, such as holding hands, caressing, cooking together, massaging each other or traveling.
Such a blessing
From the elders of sexual happiness, we can find some of their characteristics.
Step 1 Stay away from alcohol and tobacco
Smoking can lead to impotence. However, after drinking heavily, men’s erectile ability will be significantly reduced.
Moreover, alcohol is not conducive to cardiovascular health and increases the risk of erectile dysfunction.
Stay away from alcohol and tobacco, and there will be no harm.
2. Peace of mind, conjugal love
A balanced diet, regular exercise and adequate sleep can all make [sex] interesting.
In addition, the love and interest between husband and wife is actually the best [aphrodisiac].
3. The figure is not excessively out of shape,
Obesity can affect sexual desire and erection. Overweight is also related to hypertension and arteriosclerosis, which will reduce penis blood flow and experience of sexual pleasure.
If you are not in a good shape, you will easily lose confidence, thus affecting your interest.
But in fact, there is no need to be too much pressure in this respect. Although time cannot be stopped from leaving traces on our bodies, time also enables us to know more about our bodies, our partners and how to better cooperate with each other.
4. Chronic diseases are well controlled.
Chronic diseases such as coronary heart disease, stroke and diabetes, which are common in the elderly, will increase the risk of erectile dysfunction and affect blood vessel and muscle function. Osteoarthritis and gout can also make the body uncomfortable.
Only when chronic diseases are well controlled can one be in the mood to enjoy life.
The setting sun is infinitely good, not afraid of approaching dusk.
Being able to enjoy the beauty of life with your other half will not dissipate with age.
I wish you all the best.
