Sex less likely and less satisfying as women hit older age
(Reuters Health) - The number of women who have sex regularly falls off with age as does the number who report enjoyable sex after menopause, a new study shows.
In a survey of nearly 4,500 women over age 50, researchers found that less than a quarter were sexually active, according to the report published in Menopause. While the primary reason for lack of sexual activity was want of a partner, most often due to widowhood, other reasons included a partner's sexual dysfunction and the woman's own physical and/or mental health problems.
