The Importance of Sexual Health and Behavior in Older Adults

By Lee Smith, Igor Grabovac

Are you interested in understanding the importance of sexual health and behavior in older adults? Look no further! This comprehensive book provides an in-depth overview of the research and promotion of sexual health in older people. Whether you are a researcher, clinician, or student in various health fields, this book is a valuable resource.

Understanding Sexual Activity in Older Adults

Sexual activity is a vital part of intimate relationships, even in older adults. While it is true that the frequency of sexual activity tends to decline with age, many older people still consider sex to be an important part of their lives. National surveys have debunked the myth that older adults lose interest in sex or their capacity for sexual behavior.

This book presents new research that highlights the link between sexual activity and mental and physical health in older adults. It has been found that older adults who have less sex are more likely to experience health problems such as depression and physical deterioration. For example, men with erectile dysfunction are more likely to be diagnosed with cancer or coronary heart disease. On the other hand, older adults who maintain their levels of sexual desire, activity, and function in later life report better well-being and cognitive performance.

A Comprehensive Guide on Sexual Behavior in Older Adults

Despite the clear health benefits associated with sexual activity in older adults, medical professionals often overlook the importance of promoting sexual activity. This book aims to bridge this gap by addressing the lack of knowledge on the subject and providing insights into how to approach and promote sexual activities in older adults.

Written by Lee Smith and Igor Grabovac, two experts in the field, this book is the first comprehensive resource that explores all areas of sexual behavior and health in older adults. Drawing on the latest research, it covers various topics such as the effects of sexual activity on mental and physical health, the role of sexual activity in maintaining cognitive function, and strategies for promoting sexual health in older adults.
