Physical changes that begin around middle age can affect a person's ability and desire to have sex. Erectile dysfunction, vaginal dryness from menopausal changes, or a flagging sex drive (libido) are common problems. But emotional factors also play a major role in a satisfying sex life. Sex therapy is similar to couples therapy, but with an emphasis on learning to talk about sexual feelings more comfortably. The goal is to help people explore the nature and possible causes of their sexual concerns, better communicate their sexual needs and preferences, and expand their repertoire of sensual and sexual activities. Couples typically meet with a therapist for weekly 50-minute sessions. The therapist may serve as a sex educator, to help couples understand the physiological basis of specific problems. This can go a long way toward relieving anxiety in both partners. The therapist may also recommend exercises, books, and DVDs. But most of the behavioral and relationship-building work is actually done at home, as the couple puts into practice what they've been learning. The Sexuality in Midlife and Beyond Special Health Report contains an in-depth discussion of the physical transformations your body undergoes as you age, and how these changes can have a major influence on your sexuality. The advice in this report applies broadly to people of all sexual orientations. It will take you through the stages of sexual response and explain how aging affects each. You’ll also learn how chronic illnesses, common medications, and emotional issues can influence your sexual capabilities. In addition to a special section on sex therapy, the report covers such topics as these: Understanding sexuality What is sexual dysfunction?
