Do orgasm fade away as you get older?

I have been thinking about sex in my 50s and 60s and wondering what it will be like. I am in my 40s now and have more than one orgasm pretty much every time. Quite often they are very intense. So basically I am happy.

What should I expect to change in the next 20 years? Will these orgasms just fade away?

I'm just 50, and mine are better than ever 🙂

That's very good to hear! Anyone a little older able to report?

55 - better than ever & more multiples.

Probably something to do with how good my DP is in bed & how relaxed I am with him.

XH always seemed to make it into a competition, somehow Hmm

This is wonderful to hear. Anyone know about over 55?

At 66 still very good

@Voyager54

Now that is what I want to hear! Can I ask, what has changed since your 40s and what hasn't , in terms of your own pleasure from sex? Can you still orgasm more than once? Are there things you don't enjoy any more?

Mine have got better and better, I’m in my late 60s.
I’m pretty sure that HRT helps, but a younger lover and very strong mutual attraction is the charm. I’ve always had terrific experiences from fairly vanilla sex, never used toys/porn/gone in for anything unusual, so no changes for me as I’ve got older. I still have multiple orgasms, lucky me.

I’m similar age to the OP and pleased to report that everything is is as good and regular working order as it was in my teens.

In addition, I have a friend who is approaching her 70th birthday. She is regularly seeing 2 male friends, both younger, and reports all is well, both in those friendships and battery powered celebrations too.

Does anyone find that they can be so intense that on the point of orgasm you burst into tears? I have done it a couple of times and have found that quite often I have to fight it off. I'm wondering what's wrong with me ☹ xxx

@MummyKyte78

I strongly suspect the answer is... nothing :). Just enjoy it.

@MummyKyte78

I have experienced this a few times. I'm not an emotional person at all but a big fuck off orgasm can make me feel vulnerable.

That doesn't mean the partners who got me there are special or "meant to be" - just that we connected physically during that time.

MummyKyte78 · 10/09/2020 12:01

Thank you! It's just really odd and I don't want my hubby to think that (despite the orgasm) I'm not enjoying myself etc xxx

Just be in the moment and let the future take care of itself. Tomorrow isn't guaranteed so not worth worrying about. A lot can change in a heartbeat so just be present with your partner when together.

Not as good for men from my own experience. Nothing will beat the early years for a man could hit the wall from 3 yards away! Grin

Yes, I cry occasionally, more so when partner does too.
He also shakes violently after orgasm sometimes.

He’s mid-70s, the earth still moves!
