Once when I was working in the outpatient clinic at the hospital, an elderly man who came to see the doctor seemed very anxious. After questioning, we learned that he was disturbed by his sexual impulses. The old man said that he is over 70 years old, but his sexual desire is still strong and he can have normal erections when sexually stimulated. However, many of his elderly friends have no sex life at this age. The old man was worried that something was wrong with his health. Like this old man, many people believe in traditional concepts that sexual desire decreases with age, and that people no longer need sex after the age of 60. In fact, this is a misunderstanding. Appropriate sexual behavior can enhance vitality, make people rejuvenated, overcome elderly depression, prevent brain aging, prevent prostate hypertrophy, etc. Therefore, if you still have a strong sexual desire when you are older, you should be proud of it, as it is a sign of good health. The best way to deal with it is to let it go, without forcing or suppressing it. A domestic scientific research document points out that "the more active the sex life, the longer the life span." A survey of male centenarians over 80 years old in nine different regions of Guangdong Province by researchers showed that 40% of the centenarians still maintain a normal sex life, and only less than 10% of the elderly ended their sex life before the age of 70. At the same time, studies have found that if people have no sex life and no desire in this regard when they are old, their remaining life expectancy may be shorter: the average remaining life expectancy for men may be only 10 years, and the average remaining life expectancy for women may be only 13 years. It can be seen that the strength of sexual function is a barometer of physical health and longevity. In fact, sex is a good way to exercise for both men and women. A study by Harvard University in the United States pointed out that a passionate sex life consumes about the same amount of calories as riding a bicycle at a moderate speed for 1 kilometer (about two bus stops). So sex is a good form of exercise and helps to maintain health and longevity. Therefore, if the elderly have sexual confusion, they should not be ashamed to seek medical treatment. In outpatient clinics, it is not uncommon to see people in their 70s seeking advice on sexual function. This is a manifestation of the pursuit of health and fashion and cannot be dismissed as old and immoral. The pursuit of beauty and sex is precisely a manifestation of the saying “an old horse in the stable still has a thousand miles to go”, which is often a sign of longevity. |
