Wanting to want it: low desire as a common sexual complaint among middle-aged Canadian adults

Being middle-aged (40-59 years old) often means you are juggling many things at once. Dr. Quinn-Nilas and their team of Canadian researchers wanted to study this population of adults that can be overlooked in sexual health surveys. Sexual health problems are common in this age range and the researchers wanted to look at the most frequent sexual problems and their possible effect on people’s happiness with their sex life.

Sexual satisfaction is not one-size-fits-all

Sexual satisfaction is a complex topic which covers more than just having good sex or frequent orgasms. It includes aspects outside of just intercourse and sexual function, such as desire or sexual problems, though it does not have a common definition or explanation. What researchers do know is that sexual satisfaction can be an important part of maintaining stable relationships. It also plays a role in overall well-being, both emotional and physical.

Partner not doing enough housework? The science says your libido will suffer.

Many studies on low sexual desire in women have focused on biological and relationship factors, but little research has been done on the impact of social factors, such as expectations based on gender. Researchers from the Melbourne School of Psychological Sciences in Australia and Queen’s University in Canada wanted to address this gap.

The My Sexual Health website is a resource for anyone looking for comprehensive and scientific information on disorders relating to women’s sexual desire and arousal and their treatments. This website aims to ensure the accuracy of the information available on these constantly-evolving subjects by consulting with medical professionals and experts who specialize in women’s sexual health.
