Sex and the Elderly

Orgasm, Relationships, Sexuality No Comments

An issue handled with great sensitivity

Living longer means that we are sexual beings longer. Recent studies in the United States and England, provide data that says both sexes are maintaining interest and activity about things sexual well into their eighties or nineties. One study says 26% of people between 76-85 years of age are still sexually active. As you drop to younger generations that number increases.

Why does this matter? There are many reasons, and Brett Newcomb and I are talking about them this week. Socially where are we when we think about our seventy five year old widowed grandparent living in the retirement home having sex? Where are our grandparents that age with the idea of having sex? What about being married? If your grandfather and some lady he meets at the retirement home want to get married what concerns about that need to be resolved? If they don’t want to get married, but just want to touch each other and have sex, what then?

There are moral, social, physical, and psychological ingredients facing us about this as we and our parents increase in age. The concern, however, is not just about what we call the elderly. What about those among us who are 45 and over who are single. As we age our patterns for finding sexual partners and for establishing our sexual relationship are different than they have ever been.

Some numbers to consider: Only 12% of dating men and 32% of single women who are over 45 and dating report that they use condoms for safety. STD illness in this population has increased over 50% in the last decade. Why? One reason is that these generations tend to think about safe sex as meaning how do I prevent a pregnancy? It is about procreative control not about disease. Once we reach an age such as 50 where we are not concerned about having babies (women) then we don’t think about condoms for other reasons. The divorce rate among 60 and up is skyrocketing. It is now over 50% in some areas of the country. Once divorced, those people are not going to give up being sexual. How do we convince them it is possible to be the victim of an STD and that practicing safe sex is still as important as it was in high school?

There are lots of fascinating and disturbing elements to this story. Listen to our podcast for a stimulating survey of problems more and more of us will be facing as we and our parents get older.

Communication and balanced hormones are keys to good sexual relations.

In episode 47 of the BioBalance Healthcast, Brett Newcomb and I discuss aspects of the imbalance in sexual desire that many couples have.

The idea for this episode came from an inquiry I received from a writer at Ebony Magazine. They wanted to know about what’s normal in sexual behavior and how to deal with an imbalance in desire for sex within a relationship. We discuss in this podcast how some problems and solutions are medical and physical, while other are social and psychological.

Partners in relationship can come from different mindsets. Some think that sex is dirty, some think it’s only for pro-creation. Sometimes people have more testosterone causing them to have a higher sex drive. Those with a lot of testosterone have a higher sex drive, and that’s a medical problem.

Another medical cause for lack of libido is drugs. Antidepressant or birth control drugs can affect desire.

Communication is key to resolving or managing the situation. People often assume the worst of each other’s feelings if we don’t communicate. The results of not communicating can be very serious. Often time, comments come out in a fight.

Sexual components in communication can include whether or not couples talk during sex, discussion have fantasies for instance. Talking about what satisfies you can help, as long isn’t perceived as a complaint, or a criticism.

Some of my patients who have gotten counseling and have a potential to return to normal mutually satisfying relations can have medical issues. One of these problems is vaginismus, an involuntary contracting of the vagina. It can take physical therapy helping the woman feel comfortable with her body. Fundamental messages can cause these problems. How we talk to our children about sex is important. Even though sex education in schools can be a good place to teach the biological aspects of sex, the home is the best place to teach young people how sexual relationships should work.

My job is to make sure there is nothing physically wrong with the couple. A lot of women are inorgasmic. Sometimes the problem is physical, sometimes psychological. Communication is important in all cases because the man can’t read the women’s mind. Women focus on the moment, men are focused on the goal of having an orgasm. Young men are about the orgasm, later more on the intimacy.

My patients whose sexual problem is caused low or no testosterone can be treated by my bioidentical testosterone pellets and get their sex life back.

In this podcast we discuss the facts and functionality of orgasms, a subject seldom brought up in conversation, even between patients and their doctors. When the subject or orgasm does come up in medical consultation, discussion can deal with the specific issues like painful intercourse, erectile dysfunction, pre-mature ejaculation or the patient’s inability to even have an orgasm. More common in my practice and Brett Newcomb’s relationship counseling business are in discussions about sex in relationships regarding frequency and desire.
