Sustaining and strengthening the ability of the elderly to continue their sexual needs can be realized as part of improving their quality of life, health and well-being. There is no age at which ends the expression of sexuality and intimacy. Through education, quality of life and advances in medicine, the average life expectancy is still increasing. Sexual activity of older people society usually describe using pejorative terms as an inappropriate, bizarre or obscene, but these labels are different than reality. Hormonal changes and other physiological changes associated with aging affect sexual interest. Erectile dysfunction is a problem in men increasing with age. There is no evidence that premature ejaculation is more common in older age. Cross-sectional studies showed no difference in sexual dysfunction between older and younger women. Age is not a barrier to sexually transmitted diseases. The most common pathogenetic factors for male erectile dysfunction are vascular diseases. In women, the most important symptoms of sexual dysfunction are lack of emotional wellbeing and a sense of intimacy during sexual intercourse.
维持和增强老年人满足性需求的能力可作为改善其生活质量、健康和幸福感的一部分来实现。不存在 sexuality 和亲密感表达终止的年龄。通过教育、生活质量改善和医学进步,平均预期寿命仍在增加。社会通常用贬义词来描述老年人的性活动,认为其不合适、怪异或淫秽,但这些标签与现实不符。与衰老相关的激素变化和其他生理变化会影响性兴趣。勃起功能障碍是男性随年龄增长而增加的一个问题。没有证据表明早泄在老年人中更常见。横断面研究表明老年女性和年轻女性在性功能障碍方面没有差异。年龄不是性传播疾病的障碍。男性勃起功能障碍最常见的致病因素是血管疾病。在女性中,性功能障碍最重要的症状是缺乏情感幸福感和性交时的亲密感。
