Sex for Seniors

By Sid Senior


Senior sex does exist. Seniors continue to see senior sexual activity continuing later into their lives. Many people are finding out that senior sex is much easier and more enjoyable than they had thought that it was going to be. Now that their youngsters have become adults and flown the nest, and there are no more jobs taking up their time and energies, they find it easier to relax and enjoy.

Good results can be achieved by those of you who are imaginative. Be creative and try new things. Perhaps a new position will have a positive effect. See if foreplay produces more play.

In case you do not know it already, what you eat and drink does affect your life of senior sex. Fruits and vegetables produce good results for you. Too many alcoholic beverages will produce bad results for you.

I hope you are following a regular program of exercise. A healthy body is more likely to have a healthy desire for more senior sex. You will be stronger physically and will have more endurance. As a senior you will find that sex usually is easiest at the time you have the most energy. Is that earlier in the day or later?

Your mental health is just as important for your sex life as your physical health. Much of that involves your attitude and your confidence. The ill effects of such things as stress, depression and anxiety can be very detrimental. It is time to stop worrying and start living.

Granted, your face and your body have aged somewhat and may not appear quite as appealing as before. Do you really think that is going to make much of a difference. Your partner is in the same aging boat. Just the same, that person is still your partner and still very interested in you.

Another of the secrets of good sex is good communication. Most likely, the other person has the same concerns as you. Being able to share your doubts with your partner can serve to reduce some of the anxiety the two of you may be experiencing.

It is sad but true that necessary medications are able to diminish your previously strong sexual urges. Those same medications can decrease the level of your sexual performance. Fortunately, you are able to talk with the doctor prescribing the medications. That doctor should be able to explain to you whatever side effects may come with what you are consuming. Also, perhaps your dosage could be reduced. You also may be able to switch to other treatments.
