" Where Have My Orgasms Gone' - Sex Medicine & The Mature Woman

I was sitting at the Hula Hut while the sun was setting with a circle of friends, last evening after just having kayaked for almost two hours of hard, wavy, ‘thick’ water (after so much rain), all of us feeling our arms throbbing.

Jennifer wisely said, “I am gonna take an aspirin before I go to bed so it isn’t so harsh tomorrow AM.” She is 34 years younger than me.

I call these “Pink in the face Sundays”. Where you “dig” deep.

The sensation is close to a point where I question whether I can even do this. Finish this. But boy does this ever pay off in more strength, stamina and resilience. Over the next days and months.

While sitting watching the sun set over Lady Bird Lake in Austin Texas, a journal article popped up on my phone: ‘Where have my orgasms gone’. Of course, this got my interest.

Many doctors today are young.

But patients, especially women, are living older and older.

We maturing women live 1/2 to 1/3rd of our lives in menopause. So menopausal awareness is critical.

Older women still, some of them, have sex, have sex issues in their mature tissues, need and want some cuddles.

We are not dead, we not done.
