It's not just dryness, and lube doesn't cut it.

The structures in the genital area atrophy with age, even if you are on HRT. It doesn't stretch and absorb a pounding the way it did before the change of life. It really, really hurts to have PIV sex unless maybe your partner has a wee roll of dimes for a penis.


DP
Probably some of the older women use toys to keep it in shape.

I am 40 and looking forward to this!


46 and already there.

Is vaginal estrogen an RX?

Slightly off-topic, but I just turned 50 and after feeling like my OB, who I loved during my childbearing years, was ready to put me out to pasture, I switched to a doctor I found on menopause.org. I’m just having beginning symptoms of peri, so dryness isn’t a yet, but I went to her and said “I’m living my best life and don’t want to be put out to pasture. What do we need to do?” And she was all over it. She walked through what to expect and said, just message me if you need the cream or anything else. Point is, I suggest you find yourself a good Doctor Who will see you through these years now when you’re not in a hurry.

+1 54 here. No issues. My last period was December so I think this is it. I don’t notice anything different except thank god my periods stopped…I’ll see if this is for good.

Consider yourself fortunate. None of us could imagine not wanting sex regularly, either- estrogen (or lack thereof) is a helluva drug. A 90 minute deep tissue professional massage is now my idea of satisfying sex, bonus points for hot stones.

+1 that and sleeping through the night.

Thanks for sharing this.
What about the ability to orgasm? I have always been high desire and could orgasm easily but have just turned 45 and am noticing it’s a bit harder. I am having a hard time letting go of this ability as I age… Always inspired and reassured to hear from 55/60+ women who still have active sex lives.

DW is on HRT. DH uses Viagra. Big deal! We have a close relationship and a sex life. That is the important thing.

It's astonishing to me because I was the high drive one in this relationship by far. But we grew far apart after having a child in our early 40's and honestly, he has changed so much politically and morally that I doubt we'd even be Facebook friends at this point if we weren't married and raising a kid.

Even if I were given a choice between a night with George Clooney, Brad Pitt, or Idris Elba, I can't even imagine feeling sexual desire. I'd definitely say yes for a chance to hang out with naked Idris Elba because he is such delicious eye candy and seems fun and interesting, but at this point the only physical contact I'd want is either a back massage or falling asleep on his chest while he pets my hair. No genitals need to be involved. It's like mine are just...permanently offline.


This is going to be me. I’m not even 50 yet and probably in perimenopause. I’m not interested at all in sex with Dh or others. We are not completely sexless. We still do it once or twice a month but I don’t really want to.

Yes, this. Atrophy is a thing. I thought the pain was going to knock me out.



Problem is, now men have viagra. Used to be there wasn't much of a cure for ED so married men and women could age together, sexually. Now they have viagra and we have no equivalent.


Get pelvic floor treatment. You don’t just need for sex, but to prevent a prolapsed uterus and utis. It’s not as easy as taking a pill, but it’s covered by insurance.
