Sexual Health
What are the benefits of having sex with the elderly? Three Common Obstacles to Elderly Human Life
Beautiful sex can be enjoyed by everyone, regardless of the population or national boundaries. Especially for the elderly, enjoying sex can help improve memory, and its effect is comparable to that of brain games.
A research team from the University of Rostock in Germany found that elderly people who maintain sexual activity until their 70s are less likely to experience confusion and memory loss. In the new study, Professor Peter Klopp and Dr. Britta Muller surveyed elderly people aged 63 to 75 in 2011. The results indicate that the sexual satisfaction of elderly people is directly related to their youthful mood and sharp memory. Professor Klopp stated that human sexual activity also follows abandoned rules and adheres to sexual activity. Many people's sexual activity can continue until the age of 80.
Professor Klopp said that this study shows that sexual activity in the elderly is not only reliable, but can also extend lifespan, especially to prevent memory decline. Even if elderly couples feel overwhelmed by sexual activity, it is important for them to maintain intimacy. Hand in hand and affectionate gaze have a positive effect on intimate movements.
There are many benefits to a humane life for the elderly
Health is the cornerstone of ensuring quality of life. The health of the elderly not only refers to the absence of physical diseases, but also includes a healthy psychological state and the ability to maintain a harmonious sexual life. A normal sexual life is very beneficial for the physical and mental health and family harmony of the elderly. After entering the elderly, the sexual desire and frequency of sexual intercourse of couples are physically lower than when they were young. In sexual activity, the brain plays a significant role in maintaining brain health, preventing brain aging, and overall health.
According to a survey, 70% of elderly people are interested in sexual activity at the age of 60, 50% are between 60 and 80, and 10% are over 80 years old. It can be seen that the elderly still yearn for a better sexual life, mainly because with the progress of society, under certain cultural and economic conditions, a rich enough shield will affect people's lifespan and energy. The improvement of the social environment provides a relaxed atmosphere for sexual attitudes, prompting the elderly to no longer be conservative about sexual life. Culture shock has changed the family tradition of taking father and son as the axis, and replaced it with husband and wife as the center. In addition, the improvement of housing conditions has expanded private space and also constitutes an important factor. Since elderly men have sexual demands, they should be given ample opportunities to express themselves.
Adhering to moderate sexual activity is beneficial for the elderly to maintain brain sensitivity and responsiveness.
A good state of sexual activity is also an excellent enhancer for physical health. The physical exertion and exercise during sexual activity can play a role in exercising various system functions of the body, increasing antibody levels, alleviating harmful stress, and also helping to burn calories. Sexual intercourse may not necessarily be the best fitness exercise in the world, but it must be the most enjoyable form of exercise. Maintaining a certain frequency of sexual activity is an important means of strengthening the relationship between elderly couples. Sexual ability, like other functions of the body, can be used in advance or withdrawn. Long term cessation of sexual activity in old age will result in more severe sexual dysfunction than in young age, and will face greater difficulties than young people when attempting to resume sexual activity. The damage to sexual ability caused by this "disuse" atrophy in elderly men is more common.
Therefore, elderly people should have a consistent and regular sexual activity and should not continue abstinence for a considerable period of time.
In short, elderly people can still have sexual demands and efforts to meet them, but sexual life has its own characteristics and should be restrained. Sexual life is the color that decorates their later years, not the main theme of life. For elderly men with significant functional decline, as long as they have sexual demands, they can restore their sexual life and improve the quality of sexual life through various means.
Three obstacles lock in the sexual life of the elderly
Firstly, ideological constraints
Modern elderly people come from the old society and are deeply constrained in their sexual life. Sex is an untouchable taboo for them, and unless they have children, it is generally not the case. Even though it is now open and everyone advocates for sexual harmony, the closed mind has deeply ingrained in the hearts of the elderly. Therefore, they still refuse sex.
Clear obstacles: Encourage older adults to face sexual activity with a positive attitude and not engage in sexual activity. Sex is an instinctive thing in humans, and as long as it is healthy, reasonable, and moderate, one should actively participate.
Second: Organ aging
The body of an elderly person is definitely not as strong as that of a young adult, and the secretion of various organs, including hormones, has also declined. Most elderly people may suffer from certain diseases, and their physical condition is even worse. In this way, not to mention sexual activity, daily life may not necessarily be normal.
Removing obstacles: Sick elderly people can choose whether to abstain from sexual activity based on their will. Healthy elderly people with reproductive system decline, but can have sex. However, the purpose of sexual activity is to promote healthy sexual activity through emotional communication, and the frequency of sexual activity should also be gentle and gentle.
Women's vagina should be given more attention. Due to the decline of reproductive system function, dry secretion of loveless fluid can result in pain, wear, tear, and other consequences of forced sex. It is recommended to use cherry flavored lubricant, which can quickly moisturize the vagina, giving a feeling of lubrication and refreshing, making sexual life smooth and happy.
Thirdly, losing sexual interest
It is an undeniable fact that human aging is yellow. The age of women is no longer the same, and it is difficult for men to express their sexual interests when facing the "yellow faced woman" in front of them. The once handsome man has become a "bad old man", and more importantly, his strong body has become dry. In short, elderly couples are not satisfied with each other and naturally do not have sexual interest.
Cleaning obstacles: Elderly people should abandon visual stimuli and focus on emotional integration. Increase mutual intimacy, warm up previous romances, and adjust a positive and youthful mood. At the same time, pay attention to daily health care and improve sexual hormones and function.
