Do women still have sexual desires after menopause?

Menopause is very sad for women, because it is a sign that women are entering middle-aged and old age, which means that women's physical functions are declining and they are no longer young. The essence of menopause is the decline of reproductive function, which reduces women's reproductive requirements to the extreme. There is a difference between reproductive function and sexual life. Let’s take a look at whether women still have sexual needs after menopause? I hope everyone can understand.

By the time a woman is 50, her primordial follicles are mostly exhausted. After half a century of vicissitudes, the egg cells remaining in her body have become less sensitive to pituitary hormones, and because their number is extremely small, it is difficult for them to produce enough estradiol to stimulate the release of pituitary hormones.

In fact, sexual desire has disappeared, because the fundamental driving force of sexual impulse as a biological instinct comes from the hormone progesterone, which is for the purpose of reproduction. Menopause is the result of the hormone progesterone no longer being produced. The so-called fact that some postmenopausal women still experience sexual impulses and even orgasms under certain circumstances (for example, meeting an old lover from their youth) is actually a psychological activity without a biochemical basis that causes the pituitary gland to produce a large amount of morphines, which brings about a physical and mental "feeling of comfort".

Sexual activity after menopause is by no means a sexual impulse, but rather an "illusion" of psychological satisfaction or sexual hunger. In addition to being supported by physiological experiments, this is also supported by statistics. Therefore, both highly educated and poorly educated women will no longer have sexual desires after menopause, while some moderately educated (petty-bourgeois) women will say that they still have sexual desires "under certain conditions" after menopause. In fact, any living thing is a material and spiritual complex pieced together with reproduction as the most basic need, and even advanced organisms cannot escape it.
