14 Ways to Enjoy Better Sex as You Age

Stock Up on Lube
“Lubricant is one of my favourite things,” says Milhausen. “It’s critical, especially as you age.” On average, women go through menopause between the ages of 45 and 55 and the hormonal changes can result in vaginal dryness or atrophy – which then leads to pain during intercourse. Lube up before and during sexual activity and you’ll be surprised by how much your discomfort will be minimized.
Open Your Mind
“Why is the sex so much more exciting in newer relationships?” asks Laurie Betito, a Montreal clinical psychologist and sex therapist. “Because it’s new. The other body is new and you’re discovering your partner’s tastes and buttons.” Couples that have been together for 10+ years may need to put in a little extra effort to spice up their sex lives and have better sex. It can be something as simple as buying a new scented candle and some massage oil, adding sex toys into your repertoire or visiting a sex shop or sex trade show such as The Everything To Do With Sex Show to bring something fresh to your relationship.
