In old age, life is stable and happy. In addition to focusing on one's own physical health, improving the quality of life is crucial. Many people do not believe that elderly people can engage in sexual activity and believe that having sex again is harmful to their physical health. In fact, on the contrary, moderate sexual activity can bring many benefits to the elderly as long as it is within the range of physical health conditions. Sexual activity is good, but there are many things that elderly people should pay attention to when engaging in sexual activity.
What issues should elderly people pay attention to during sexual activity?
1. Pay attention to frequency
With age, the body is no longer young and cannot engage in frequent sexual activity, which can make it unbearable for the body. The exact frequency of sexual activity to choose depends on the man's body. Elderly people aged 60 to 65 can have a one-time life every three weeks. Elderly people aged 65 to 70 can have a one-time life every month or one and a half months. The specific frequency of sexual activity should still depend on one's physical condition, whether there will be special fatigue, and whether there will be any other discomfort symptoms.
2. Pay attention to time
Elderly people need to pay attention to the timing of sexual activity, and should generally choose to have sex in the morning. Young people can choose to have sex at any time of the day, and it is common to have sex before going to bed at night. However, elderly people are not suitable for having sex before going to bed at night because they have been tired for a whole day, and their physical and mental strength are relatively poor. At this time, the quality of sexual life will be relatively low, and neither of them will get a good feeling. Having sex in the morning is more physically and mentally active, and it is easier to satisfy, making it more suitable for the elderly.
3. Pay attention to hygiene conditions
Elderly people should pay attention to cleaning their private parts before and after engaging in sexual activity, and both men and women should do this well. After entering menopause, women's resistance in their private parts will decrease, making them susceptible to the invasion of some bacteria and the harassment of elderly vaginitis. If you engage in sexual activity without cleaning, bacteria can easily enter women's private areas through sexual activity, posing a threat to women's gynecological health.
