In traditional concepts, many people believe that sexual desire will decline with age, and that after the age of 60, people no longer need sex. In fact, this is a misunderstanding. Appropriate sexual behavior can enhance vitality, rejuvenate people, overcome senile depression, prevent brain aging, prevent prostate hypertrophy, etc. A scientific sex life can help the elderly live a healthy and long life. However, due to some characteristics of the elderly, the following principles should be observed during sex.

Let nature take its course, don’t force it, don’t suppress it. As age increases and the body ages, many elderly people will experience loss of sexual desire. At this time, you should pay attention to maintaining your own sex life, but don't force yourself and your partner. The most important thing is persistence. The frequency is 1-3 times a month. In life, you should eat more nutritious food, maintain a positive attitude, and do not drink excessively, smoke, or abuse drugs.

Enjoy the pleasure of caressing. Older people should understand that sex is not limited to sexual intercourse. Touching, kissing and other intimate contacts can all be exciting. Some elderly people with chronic diseases should use this "like sexual intercourse behavior" more often.

Communicate more with your partner and consult a doctor. Don't be shy about communicating. Age is not a problem. Husband and wife should communicate frankly about each other's thoughts and needs. Caring for and loving each other can bring about a pleasant sexual experience. If you encounter difficulties that cannot be solved, especially those with chronic diseases, talk to your doctor about your confusion.

Choose the right time for sex. It is best to have sex for the elderly in the morning. After a night's rest, fatigue is restored and the energy is the most abundant. For men, the secretion of male hormones in the body is relatively strong in the morning, which is beneficial to stimulating sexual desire and erection. For women, as they age, their vaginal lubrication ability weakens. In addition to using vaginal lubricants, they must also pay attention to comfortable postures.
