Patient's question:
No.Doctor's answer:
Postmenopausal women still have sexual desires. From a physiological perspective, after menopause, the ovaries no longer secrete estrogen or ovulate, and fertility is lost. At the same time, the reproductive organs undergo degenerative changes, and the response speed and intensity of each stage of the sexual response cycle are significantly reduced. This is one aspect of the truth. However, we cannot overlook the other side of sexual desire formation, which is that, in addition to the physiological factors mentioned above, sexual desire is also influenced by cultural concepts, psychological factors, and environmental factors.After women reach menopause, due to stable lives, children having grown up and started working, and strong marital relationships, they no longer need to worry about pregnancy. This eliminates the sexual repression caused by the aforementioned factors in the past, and sexual desire can even be enhanced. During sexual activity, they feel more relaxed and open. These examples are commonly observed.
