Can women still have sex after menopause?

Generally, women will experience menopause around the age of 50. If they have sexual intercourse at this time, they may experience symptoms of pain. Many women will also experience a decrease in libido and often lose interest in sexual intercourse. Therefore, many women often stop having sex after menopause. So, after menopause, can women still have sex? What should they pay attention to?

Women can have sex after menopause, but they should pay attention to the following issues:

●It has been proven that women who maintain regular sex life before menopause can still maintain good sexual adaptability after menopause, even after the age of 60.

Postmenopausal sexual dysfunction is caused by multiple factors. During this special period of menopause, the husband's care and understanding is also a good medicine, and appropriate physical contact and caress are also necessary. Relying solely on estrogen supplementation for treatment can only alleviate the patient's physiological causes, but cannot improve their psychological causes. It is recommended that women maintain regular sex life before menopause.

●For menopausal women, sexual desire has reached the lowest point in their lives.

Because during this period women's estrogen levels decrease, hormone secretion is greatly reduced, and their sexual desire also reaches a low point. Therefore, they are less and less willing to cooperate with their husbands' sexual demands, and they try to divert their husbands' sexual suggestions for no reason, and they feel overwhelmed. At this time, it is easy to cause some unhappiness in the family. Menopause does not actually mean the end of sexual life. Data also show that among American women, a large proportion of them still have sexual desire at the age of 70. This is due to good counseling from a psychologist and stimulation with estrogen.

From this we can see that women can still have sex after menopause. If they feel pain during sexual intercourse, they can also use some lubricants to relieve the pain and make their sex life more perfect. Moreover, if postmenopausal women can maintain regular sex life, they and their husbands can be healthier both mentally and physically.
