Thereβs a common belief that s*x and intimacy fade away as we get older β but for many people, that simply isnβt true π
Closeness, affection, and feeling connected can remain deeply important at every stage of life.
At Prolife Healthcare Services, we see every day how relationships, intimacy, and emotional connection continue to matter as we age. In the lead-up to Valentineβs Day β€οΈ, weβre sharing our new S*x, Relationships and Intimacy Guide for Older People β created with care, respect, and understanding.
Whether youβre in a long-term partnership, starting a new relationship later in life, or just wanting reassurance about changes you may be experiencing, this guide offers gentle, practical support.
A few thoughtful tips for older people around s*x, intimacy and relationships:
β’ π¬ Talk openly with your partner about comfort, feelings, and what feels right for you
β’ π± Be kind to yourself β bodies change, and intimacy can change with them
β’ ποΈ Take your time and explore what makes intimacy comfortable and enjoyable
β’ π€ Remember intimacy isnβt only about s*x β touch, affection, and emotional closeness all matter
β’ π Confidence and self-worth donβt have an age limit
β’ πΉ Relationships can grow, shift, and deepen at any stage of life
Because everyone deserves connection, warmth, and understanding β at every age.
