      1. Take the initiative to live a good sex life according to your own sexual desire and ability.

      middle aged female Sexual intercourse should be maintained about once a week. If the sexual desire is strong, it can be increased appropriately. But avoid artificially suppressing sexual desire.

      2. Pay attention to fitness and beauty

      It is true that women entering menopause often lose their appearance, have sagging breasts, and gradually lose their former plumpness and beautiful lines. However, if you regularly participate in fitness exercise , pay attention to grooming, it will help improve the body's vitality and attraction to the opposite sex, especially beautify the image in the mind of the husband.

      Middle-aged women may wish to run, play table tennis, badminton, do aerobics and other exercises regularly. This can not only improve the health of the whole body healthy It is beneficial to improve sexual function and enhance sexual desire. As the saying goes: "Old people do not avoid beauty." Middle-aged women should pay more attention to the modification of their appearance. If necessary, they can also go to a beauty salon. The right dress can make them feel more alive and younger, and produce a positive and pleasant emotion psychologically.

      3. Pay attention to diet and nutrition

      Middle-aged women should eat some foods that are helpful for beauty and improving sexual function. Fish, eggs, mutton, rabbit meat, meat skin, sesame seeds, honey, walnuts and other foods are rich in protein, trace elements, vitamins and other foods, which can play a dual role of beautifying and "helping sex". In addition, soy products, fresh vegetables, fruits, etc. are indispensable foods for maintaining good health.

      Four drug adjustments

      Some women will experience mild or severe symptoms of "menopausal syndrome", which will have a certain impact on their sexual life. In fact, menopausal syndrome is a psychophysiological functional disorder dominated by psychological disorders. In addition to psychological counseling, you can take estrogen (such as diethylstilbestrol, etc.), gengrenkang, oryzanol, vitamin B6 and other drugs appropriately under the guidance of a doctor to correct various discomforts during menopause.

      Five improvements to adjust your sexual lifestyle

      1. Changing roles. Many middle-aged women’s sexual desire increases during the “second honeymoon period”, while their spouse’s sexual desire weakens relatively.

      For example, what should we do if the man no longer takes the initiative as he did in his youth? At this time, you might as well change the role. As long as there are physiological needs, the woman should actively send sexual signals to the man and take the initiative to be intimate with the man. This will help increase the man's sexual interest and stimulate his sexual desire.

      2. Full caressing should be done during sex

      The process of arousing sexual excitement for middle-aged men and women is slower than in the past. Both parties should take sufficient time to kiss, hug, and caress, including touching the reproductive organs. This can extend the time of each caressing action and change the rhythm and intensity of caressing, thereby laying the foundation for achieving orgasm.

      3. You can change sexual intercourse positions

      Most middle-aged people start to gain weight. Weight gain can change the traditional sexual intercourse positions of man on top and woman on top, such as side lying position, woman on top and man on bottom, etc. However, the change of posture requires exploration and experience by both parties.

      4. Pay attention to the moistness of sexual organs

      Due to reduced sexual organ function and insufficient vaginal secretions, middle-aged women may experience symptoms such as itching, burning, dryness and pain during sexual intercourse. Applying some medical Vaseline or contraceptive cream on the male or female sexual organs before sexual intercourse can avoid the occurrence of these uncomfortable symptoms.

      In addition, it is worth mentioning that middle-aged women may also suffer from certain disease Such as pituitary gland lesions and gonadal lesions, mental illness etc. lead to abnormally strong sexual desire, which must not be confused with the "second honeymoon".
