Is Your Love Life Normal? The Surprising Answer

There’s one question seniors whisper to me more than any other right before I leave the exam room.
“Doc, what’s a healthy sex drive for a person my age?”
They’re usually surprised by my answer. And you might be too…
The truth is there is NO one-size-fits-all answer here.
Your sex drive is like your favorite pair of jeans. It’s personal and what feels right for you might not work for someone else.
Here’s the bottom line: If you’re happy with your current level of desire, then you’re golden!
Whether you’re swinging from the chandeliers every night or content with a cuddle and a crossword, it’s ALL GOOD as long as you’re satisfied.
However, libido is another thing altogether.
If you’re feeling like your libido has gone on an extended vacation, and that’s bumming you out, then it’s time to play detective. There could be all sorts of reasons why your sex drive may be absent, ranging from health issues to stress or even certain medications.
The good news is that many of these can be addressed with some help from your doctor and sometimes the right supplements.
Remember, there’s no “correct” amount of sex you should be having to qualify as healthy.
Some folks are perfectly content with a low-key love life, while others are burning up the sheets well into their golden years. It’s all about what feels right for you and your partner.
So, don’t sweat it if you’re not feeling as frisky as you think you “should” be. But if it’s bothering you, don’t be shy—speak up!
Your doctor has heard it all before, trust me. We’re here to help you live your best life, and that includes having a satisfying sex life… whatever that means for you.
P.S. Want your sex drive back? Try THIS libido solution!
