Thread: sex during perimenopause

Well I keep saying my biggest symptom of memopause is horniness - not that I wasn't before, just more so. It's cruel irony cause men at this age or earlier, seem to have slowed down so much.

I had the bleeding thing going on a little over a year ago, it was draining me, in addition to being messy. I got a D&C and ablation (they tired drugs and that turned me into an emotional mess- so I said NO) anyway, that was a great choice for me. No more bleeding, no muss, no fuss. I really think a lot of being horny is emotional - in general if I'm happy, I'm horny. But then right now I'm fairly miserable and still horny, so maybe that theory doesn't hold, except I'm not as horny. I do find that since my relationship fell apart, I'm having "symptoms" I didn't before. Namely hot flushes and really poor sleep. I suspect it has more to do with a low level depression than anything else.

I suspect the lust for life, fuels the other lusts. No reason why it shouldn't last! Stay active, eat well and have things in your life that interest you - including sex.
