性激素的功能:絕經對性行為的作用是什麼?
通常從50歲開始,一個女人會經歷絕經期,既停經。因為卵巢逐漸停止分泌激素,停經才會發生,但並不必然地意味著她的性反應會弱化。當然,甚至會因為心理社會原因,性反應可能增強,例如,因為她不再擔心懷孕而可能增強性反應。
The Role of Hormones:
What are the effects of the menopause on sexual behavior?
Usually beginning at age 50, a woman experiences her menopause, i.e. the cessation of menstruation. This happens because the ovaries gradually cease their hormone production. This does not necessarily mean a weakening of her sexual response. Indeed, the response may even be strengthened for psychosocial reasons, for example, because she no longer has to fear pregnancy.
