2. Sex in the elderly


Age is not a big obstacle to having sex. Sex drive may even stay the same or even increase in middle age. However, in general, as you get older, the frequency of sex can decrease. A Duke University study published in the November 1974 Journal of the American Geriatric Society found that "by age 68, about 70% of men are sexually active" but this number drops to 25% by age 78.
While men may experience a gradual decrease in sex drive as testosterone levels drop, women experience a range of effects due to the more complex hormonal changes that occur with menopause. Some people do not experience a decrease in sex drive for many years. Partly because of the increased prevalence of hormone replacement therapy, which helps relieve symptoms of menopause, it may also help improve sexual function in women. Other women may respond to low-dose double testosterone medications that improve libido.

Several studies have cited the anti-aging effects of sex after survey and analysis from the available data. Having sex at least twice a week can make your biological age 1.6 years younger than if you had sex only once a week. Biological age is the age estimated by biological indicators, not by time.
A study conducted in Caerphilly, Wales and published in the British Medical Journal December 1997, investigated the relationship between sex and mortality. The study found that surveyed men who had at least two orgasms per week at the time of the study halved their risk of all-cause mortality over 10 years of follow-up compared with those with the highest frequency. lower orgasms. This means that the more orgasms men have, the longer they are likely to live.

One of the first long-term studies on aging started at Duke University in the 50s and was reported in the December 1982 issue of Gerontologist showing sex frequency (for men) and sexual enjoyment (for women) to predict life expectancy. Studies have found that sexual dissatisfaction is a predictor of the onset of cardiovascular disease. A study published in the November 1976 issue of Psychology compared 100 women with heart disease (acute myocardial infarction) with a control group and found apathy and dissatisfaction about their health. sex in 65% of patients with coronary artery disease but only 24% of controls. In these studies, although a correlation was found between frequency and/or enjoyment of sex with life expectancy and other outcomes, the study failed to demonstrate cause and effect. fruit. This means whether sexual dissatisfaction increases the risk of cardiovascular events or whether the occurrence of these cardiovascular events reduces the frequency and enjoyment of sex.
In a long-term study at the Royal Edinburgh Hospital in Scotland, research into sexuality in old age found that "the key components that influence youthfulness are the ability to function and maintain youthfulness. sex life is good among older adults.In a study of 3,500 people aged 30 to 101, sex made you look four to seven years younger than your actual age in years.
