How to maintain sexual health while aging

Core Tip: In life, many men of the same age have very different quality of sex life: some still have good sexual ability at the age of 70, while others are "not good enough" in their 40s. The reason is that different "sexual age" is an important factor. The human body ages, but sex ages at a different rate.

"Men generally mature physically around the age of 20 to 22, and their physiological functions gradually reach their peak, after which they begin to slowly decline." Jiang Hui said that medically it is generally believed that male sexual aging occurs around the age of 50. At this time, male testosterone levels drop significantly, and the body will experience many discomforts, such as inattention, bad mood, thinning hair, decreased physical strength, etc.; sexual changes will also occur, such as decreased libido, slow sexual response, decreased erectile ability, genital atrophy, and reduced semen volume.

Experts point out that although sexual aging is terrible, it can be prevented. By working hard in the following aspects, we can help everyone achieve the goal of “aging without losing their temperament”.

To strengthen your sperm, you must first strengthen your heart

Fitness is worse than impotence. Exercise can keep people healthy and is also beneficial to the secretion of androgens, making the body full of vitality and achieving the purpose of delaying aging. Appropriate outdoor activities can also make you feel happy and relieve tension.

More caressing than sex

Mutual caressing and hugging between couples play an important role in sex, and can also stimulate the secretion of gonadal hormones and maintain youthful sexual function. As we age, caressing becomes more important than physical love.

Matching is better than supplementing
