54 and horney as hell. Idris -oh my, I’d hit that every day. Dryness isn’t a big deal, nothing that lubricant can’t solve. I have more libido than ever and more time now that kids are in college.

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.

They can atrophy if you don’t regularly have sex. Just talked to my gyn about this - I had no idea I’m so lucky to be 60 and still easy to get wet.

I wish this was true, but it’s not. It’s the lack of estrogen.

Perfect description. I’ll add bleeding after even with HRT and estrogen cream.

No, it does not.

Pretty low but I think that’s just because my husband is obese and underwhelming in bed. I had a sex dream recently that made me weep.

53 and still menstruating here. Wet with bf of 6m. It was a little dry in the beginning but now all I have to do is think of him and I’m ready. Tool is on the smaller side, fortunately I love him so that helps. Bf before him was 6’2” with equipment to match and sex was much more explosive/high impact but this man has a slower style that works for us. Clitoris is smaller than before I think and O is harder to reach (I used to go off 4-5 times in my early 40s). But it’s still great and I want it every day, mostly bc he’s so hot and I love him so much.

Glad I found this thread. New relationship after divorce and I feel desire, but lady parts are slow to respond. I am using vaginal estrogen.
Any recommendations on a vibrator?
