Patient's question:
My wife has gone through menopause now, but I am a few years younger than her, and I still want to have sex. However, in the past one or two years, she has been in poor health, so we have had very few opportunities to do so.Doctor's answer:
Menopause does not preclude sexual activity, but during sexual activity, the following should be noted: For women in menopause, maintaining a moderate level of sexual activity can further enhance their enjoyment of family life, improve marital intimacy, balance the internal and external environment of the body, promote physical and mental health, and prolong life. However, the following aspects should be paid attention to:Eliminate psychological stress. After menopause, sexual arousal and response may be slower, so it is appropriate to extend foreplay and increase the stimulation of passionate language.
Pay attention to sexual hygiene. Due to the inevitable physiological aging that occurs after menopause, sexual activity should be practiced with restraint.
