At what age will a man's sexual health start to go downhill?

I started to feel a slightly reduction in sex drive after I hit 35.

Besides being unhealthy, I believe marriage is the biggest virility killer.

I am 46. I have a great sex drive but I can’t say there has been NO decline, like ctroadrunner.

I would say that until I was 40, I would never think about my erection. I could have sex anytime. I could even occasionally cum and not stop fucking until I came a second time. Probably around the time I was 40, there were times where I would feel that my dick during sex was not completely hard as a rock, especially after drinking alcohol. Still hard enough to do it, but not throbbing hard. I know this is normal for many guys, but was a new development for me. I was in my early 40’s and drunk, the first time and only time I failed to get hard for my wife. It effected my confidence, even though I know it could even happen to an 18 year old, if drunk enough.

Now I’m 46 and I have sex every day, and I beat off every day, and I’m horny as hell. As horny, or more horny, than I have ever been. I just enjoy it and my relationship with my wife is a big factor in my wanting to fuck all the time. I usually lose my interest in sex after drinking, but I can still have a few and fuck just fine. My erection is normally excellent, especially in the morning, but again, occasionally not 100% after drinking or tired. I would say my erection is better than many 20 year olds, but I notice a decline compared to when I was 20. I am in pretty good shape and exercise regularly, and eat low fat, and I know that is THE most important thing if you want to fight off ageing effects.

A close friend of mine has just turned 68 and he has the most incredible sex life. Aside from his live in partner, he currently has four (yes four!) women on the go, the youngest is 29. In terms of sexual function, he can fuck for hours on end and can easily see off these younger women. Over the 30 years I’ve known him I’ve often wondered what his secret was as he’s not particularly good looking. He has a magnetic personality and is also a personal trainer, so he has a ready supply of female clients!

My sex drive plummeted around age 14 or 15 but has been stable since then.

My orgasmic capacity, on the other hand, has only risen with age. In my mid-20s, now, I can cum 5 or 6 times in a day, whereas during puberty I could only manage 2 or 3 times.

I have never had an erection problem, but I know that will eventually decline, as Mravg described. Thank goodness for generic dick drugs!!

Although it’s normal for libido and performance to taper off at a certain age, that can be at any mature age, depending. [30 is “mature.”] More and more men are complaining in their thirties because of the new freedom in talking about ED. It used to be that men even in their sixties did not bitch about it; after all, then there was little that could be done and the subject was taboo.

Nowadays we have some pretty wonderful chemistry and fewer inhibitions in discussing this problem.

My own theory (not flawless because genetics fit in) is that men who remain sexually active, exercise, and eat decently, have less chance of having early onset ED and all the peripheral problems that come with aging.

Men who are older, too, often approach their ED from the wrong direction. They get the drugs and use them rarely because their partners are no longer interested or they are not themselves. It really is about Use it or Lose it. If you have a compromised penile vascular system, you ain’t gonna fix it taking a couple Viagra (or whatever) a month. You have to get that thing up and running again and doing that will not do the job.

I am 60 yrs young and sex drive same as it was when twenty guess I am lucky

Don’t need any drugs just my wife to get me were I need to go maybe because she is 15 years my junior.

I would like to add that PE has also had a distinct, noticeable effect on frequency and quality of erections.

That is so true. Conversely, for me (and I bet other guys as well) my erection frequency and hardness are directly affected when I put on weight and other factors kick in like higher heart rate, high blood pressure and high cholesterol, as well as the medications that go along with that.

The worst thing for me is a full stomach. Second is too much alcohol. Surprisingly, being dead tired has the opposite effect to what you might expect.

Full stomach? Never heard that one. It does effect my wifes interest level however. A nice dinner out can have just the opposite effect of my intentions.

Makes me sluggish in general. Not a light meal, which I generally prefer, but really stuffing myself :-)

I’m 58 and I’m certainly just as horny as I was as a teenager. I’ve never had any erectile problems but I used to be able to reach orgasm very quickly and come up to 5-6 times a day as a kid, it now takes 15-30 minutes to come and twice a day (very occasionally three) is about my limit. Seminal volume is also a little less. Oh well, some declines from aging are inevitable but I’m still enjoying sex tremendously. Having a bigger cock is also certainly a plus.

Another inspirational story!!

What exercise do you do? Do you take any supplement?
