Sexuality in older age
Sexuality in older age concerns the sexual drive, sexual activity and overall sexuality of people middle age and old age, and social perceptions about sexuality in older age. Older people engage in a variety of sexual acts from time to time for a variety of reasons. While the human body has some limits on the maximum age for reproduction, sexual activity can be performed or experienced well into the later years of life. Sexuality in older age is often considered a taboo, and this can have an impact on how older individuals experience their sexuality.
==Physical changes==
Both male and female libidos tend to decline with increasing age and women tend to lose their libido faster than men. However, this is not to say the desire for sexual activity is lost completely or that it decreases for everyone. Menopause, a female biological process, has been linked to a loss of interest in sexual activity and to a desensitisation of the genital area.〔("Sexual psychophysiology and effects of sildenafil citrate in oestrogenised women with acquired genital arousal disorder and impaired orgasm: A randomised controlled trial". )〕 In some cases, vaginal penetration can be painful for older women (see, for example, vaginismus). However, with the advent of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) treatments, the effects of the menopause have lessened and women have more opportunities to continue to experience an active sex life. Similarly, treatments for erectile dysfunction can make it possible for men to enjoy sexual activity again.
Despite the aging of the population, little is known about the sexual behaviors and sexual function of older people. One survey investigated the prevalence of sexual activity, behaviors, and problems in a national probability sample of 3005 U.S. adults (1550 women and 1455 men) 57 to 85 years of age and the association of these variables with age and health status.〔(The National Social Life, Health, and Aging Project (NSHAP) )〕
