SENIOR CITIZEN SEX EDUCATION: SENIORS’ SEX PROBLEMS AND FEARS

Posted by admin

You’re right that there are changes that come with aging. Changes in your skin, your hair, even your eyes, and other general mechanical deterioration are a fact of life over time no matter what we do. Research shows, however, that memory, intelligence, mobility, even such things as high blood pressure and circulatory changes are affected by the oldest principle in the world. Use it or lose it seems to be correct for many aspects of life and aging, and that is certainly true for sex. I think we’ll find, if we have the courage to study it, if we have the sensitivity to the needs of our older population to care, that the neurochemical changes that accompany sex are vital for staying healthy. Aging is strongly related to changes in brain chemistry, and I suspect that such changes could in turn be affected by sexual activity. It is not enough just to condone sex in aging, it must be advocated. In studying cultures where sex is not only allowed but expected of their aging populations, scientists have written that continuing to be sexual later into life is one of the major components of longevity.
