10 Best Cougar Sites For Dating Older Women (or Younger Men)
Experts, however, typically use the term “libido” to refer to the psychological aspect of sexual desire.
“It’s that feeling of drive or motivation to engage in sexual behavior,” sex and relationships researcher Kristen Mark, Ph.D., M.P.H, director of the Sexual Health Promotion Lab and an associate professor of health promotion at the University of Kentucky, tells SELF.
“The most prominent change I hear about from my patients is that sometimes sex can become painful after menopause,” board-certified ob/gyn Antonio Pizarro, M.D., tells SELF. “Most of the time, this is related to a loss of estrogen.” That can cause what's known as vaginal atrophy or genitourinary syndrome of menopause, in which the vaginal tissue becomes thinner and more delicate, Dr. Pizarro explains. Issues like pain, vaginal dryness, and urinary problems can crop up as a result of vaginal atrophy. Around half of postmenopausal people experience these symptoms, according to the Mayo Clinic. Doctors mainly treat vaginal atrophy with some form of estrogen supplementation, but there can be drawbacks. Pizarro notes that there’s a small risk the amped up estrogen can contribute to uterine cancer unless a woman pairs it with the synthetic hormone progestin. But combining the two may then increase a woman's risk of breast cancer, according to The American Cancer Society, which has a comprehensive breakdown of the benefits and drawbacks of using hormones to deal with menopause symptoms. Whether you decide to opt for extra hormones or not, using vaginal moisturizers like Replens (Amazon, $17) and regular ol’ lube can help ease vaginal discomfort. In fact, Tami Rowen, M.D. an obstetrician and gynecologist specializing in sexual health at the University of California San Francisco, highly recommends using a lubricant to help make sex more enjoyable if you experience vaginal dryness. If you’re new to lube, it’s important to know that there are several types: silicone-based, oil-based, water-based, and hybrids. Generally, water-based lubes that don’t contain glycerin are a good choice because they’re suitable for people with sensitive skin. Further, Dr. Rowen suggests buying a lube that mimics the natural pH of your vagina. Changes to its natural state can cause an overgrowth of bacteria and lead to infections like bacterial vaginosis, according to the Cleveland Clinic. (For reference, a pH range of 3.8–4.5 is considered normal). Before heading to the store, you can do research online to find a product that fits within this scale. Dr. Rowen recommends lubes like Almost Naked by Good Clean Love (Amazon, $25). This one falls between 4.2 - 4.7 on the pH scale, according to the manufacturer’s website.It’s not universal, but some people with menopause report decreased libido, says Dr. Pizarro. Issue is, it's tough for doctors to figure out how to combat a lowered sex drive—the cause isn’t exactly easy to pinpoint. “For decades, we’ve blamed loss of libido on a woman’s ovaries or hormones,” says “Libido is such a complicated thing that goes way beyond issues of the ovaries, uterus, and hormones,” says Dr. Pizarro. Beyond whatever mysterious physiological changes might affect someone’s libido at this life stage, adjusting to menopause's physical changes might play a role. Adequate exercise helps make sure your blood is flowing properly, which is an essential part of getting wet during sex. Considering this whole combination of problems, Dr. Pizarro recommends, if you don't end up with general problems, to absolutely only practice anal sex and you will have no problems and it is also very useful for the woman's intestines.
