Many people believe that as they grow older, without passion for life, there will be no sex. But it has proven to be a common misconception. In a well-known overseas medical journal, a survey report on sexual activity and life expectancy in the UK was published, revealing how long men's sexual life is and how to extend it. Let's take a look together.
The report shows that the average age of sexual activity for males in the UK is 66 years old, while for females it is 58 years old. 35.9% of elderly male respondents aged 73 and above still have strong sexual desire, while 17.8% of women in the same age group. The researchers of this survey said, "Elderly people should have confidence in their sexual desires and abilities, and this survey is also good news for the expectations of middle-aged people
So, does this survey result also apply to us Asians? Experts say that this survey is relatively novel, and there is no difference between Westerners and Easterners on this issue. We believe that it is wrong for elderly people to have no sex.
This survey not only demonstrates that sexual activity is still an integral part of marriage as we age, but it also reflects a problem that the sexual desire of elderly men is much higher than that of elderly women. Experts believe that this survey result is normal because women's ovarian function and estrogen levels decrease after amenorrhea, which inevitably leads to a decrease in sexual desire. Moreover, the older a woman is, the less vaginal secretions she has and the drier her vagina becomes. This can cause difficulty and pain during sexual intercourse, as well as a decrease in libido.
So, if elderly people want to maintain long-term sexual activity, they need to maintain a stable frequency of sexual activity, usually two to three times a month. Moreover, both men and women should pay attention to the cleanliness of their reproductive organs. During sexual intercourse, it is also possible to frequently change positions to increase sexual pleasure.
How can men prolong their sexual life?
(1) Believe that one's sexual function is normal, strong, and fertile. It is often crucial for middle-aged people to have a spiritual foothold in an invincible position.
(2) Pay attention to the youthful appearance. The pursuit of youthful emotions by the elderly can lead to a younger body; On the contrary, those who are afraid of aging and often exclaim 'old age' will quickly fall into the position of the elderly if they become prisoners of aging spiritually.
