Couples today don't have to settle for less satisfying sex as they age or keep secrets from each other in the bedroom. Recent, groundbreaking research has shown that, in as many as 90 percent of people reaching midlife, age-related sexual problems may have treatable hormonal or other medical causes. Even issues such as sexual boredom and dissatisfaction that may not on the surface seem to be medical problems may have physical roots. This new approach to solving sexuality issues has been called the second sexual revolution because it has now become possible to virtually age-proof your sex life.
Making Love the Way We Used to . . . or Better is a reassuring guide to the latest, best treatments for problems that frequently creep in as midlife approaches. Harvard gynecologist and menopause specialist Alan Altman, M.D., with Laurie Ashner, offers a five-step plan for uncovering your secrets in the bedroom and for ridding yourself of them forever. The authors offer sensitive advice on communicating about the problem with either a long-term or new partner and share cutting-edge information on the steps you can take to revitalize your sex life. You'll find out what to do if:
· Sex has become painful · You feel too exhausted to respond to your partner · You start to feel ambivalent about sex · Hormones are wreaking havoc with your life in general · Your libido has begun to fade · You feel self-conscious about your changing body · Your partner is more interested in the Internet than in you · Your partner is having performance problems · Viagra hasn't turned out to be the instant solution you had hoped for
Dr. Altman also provides his list of ten smart, proven ways to age-proof your sex life.
All couples keep secrets from each other. Discover which ones may be killing your sex life and how to banish them forever.
Alan Altman, M.D., is assistant clinical professor of obstetrics, gynecology, and reproductive biology at Harvard Medical School and is an expert on menopause and midlife sexuality. He lectures nationally on these and other subjects.
