So there is a new shot that will prevent you from getting the virus associated with genital warts that causes women cervical cancer. Considering genital warts are rampant, and close to 75% of Canadians will be exposed to the virus in their lifetime, this comes at a great time to get stabbed if you are a sexually active woman.
I asked an infectious disease doctor about it recently. A few of my recently single, 30-something friends wondered if they should pay (the few hundreds of dollars) to get the shot. It seems, that it is only meant for girls/women ages 9 to 26. Old chicks like me (if I were to choose to run around on the wonder husband) don’t need to get it because our cellular mucosa is too seasoned to adhear to the type of virus that causes the worrisome cervical cancer. It is safe, can’t hurt, and may be a thought if you are an aging party girl out doing the football team, but not as big of a worry for us older broads. I guess with mamograms and menopause looming, we have enough to worry about.
So do women after 50 have no interest in sex, and if they do, do they require vats of lube?
If you ask men sitting around a table over 45, many of them would be teasing and joking about how they never get sex anymore, and that they all have to beg for it. Apparently, this is just a veiled way of covering up the fact that many of them, aren’t getting it nearly as much as they would like. Consistently, men tell me that women don’t appreciate that they need sex, and think about it at least 6 times a day….(on average according to the Sex in America study)
Women as they hit menopause, seem to be giving up sex for lent or much, much longer. Menopause never improves women’s libido, and given the stress, and chaos of modern living, the cortisol or stress hormone levels in women’s bodies biologically turn down the heat to almost non-exisitant for many women. Hey, if you stress animals enough, the first thing that goes is their ability to go into heat. Think of looming deadlines, the pile of laundry, kids and aging parents, and you have a receipe for no sex. And the longer you go without it, the less likely you are to kickstart it. You need interest, arousal, lubrication, decent technique, timing and an orgasm to really enjoy sex. If one of those things are off for women, she’s starting to do her laundry list in her head while her partner is huffing and puffing on top of her.
I’m going to offer up some suggestions for fixing the drought in upcoming blogs. in the meanwhile, know that many guys are going to explode from lack of sex, and masturbation simply isn’t cutting it.
So my guest tonight was this cool MD, originally from Winnipeg, now living in California who had some great suggestions on staying sexual until our 90’s or they take us away feet first. His name was Dr. Abraham Kryger His book on hormone’s and a woman’s guide to men’s healthHe said a few very interesting things that I hadn’t heard express in just that way before.
1. He says that men low testosterone have a greater chance of getting prostate cancer. He’s been using the low dose testosterone creams for years, with great success. He says that men should have a testosterone check at 50 to give them a baseline of what their normal testosterone should be for them (between 300 and 1200).
2. He said that new information out is that prostate problem may be a vitamin deficiency, and adding that vitamin to your diet is effective treatment for men with high or elevated PSA (prostate specific androgens).
3. Men are getting chemically castrated by the toxins in the meat and animal fat.
4. The two biggest causes of impotence are a) smoking b) alcohol.
5. Men’s sprem counts have decreased by 45% over the last decade in the US, the UK, adn France, mainly due to these increased toxins. While girls puberty has decreases, boys have actually increased. Scary stuff.
I’ll post the MP3 of the interview for your listening pleasure.
