Abstract:
Menopause is a time of psychologic adjustment as well as of physical change. Its effects are closely related to sexuality, a neglected aspect. Sexual desire may increase, decrease, or remain the same, but the general pattern is one of declining sexual interest and activity with increasing age. The male climacteric is considered a time of decreasing sexual activity and capability, lowered self-esteem, and declining energy. Physical symptoms are milder than in women, and the process if more gradual. Health care professionals involved with menopausal patients should provide factual information and give supportive guidance which will permit women to continue to develop their full sexual potential.
