Aging can change sexuality, but satisfying sex is possible with adjustments and a focus on comfort.
Toupees originated in the 18th century, with the name developing from the French toupet, meaning tuft of hair. They became particularly prominent in the mid-20th century, with Time magazine estimating that more than 2.5 million men across the US were wearing toupees by 1970.
Take a quick search for peptides on eBay and you'll be knees-deep in a veritable flood of sketchy substances marketed as amino acid products. There are legitimate medical uses for peptides—GLP-1 drugs, for instance—but the stuff getting hawked on eBay requires no prescription and seems to have no regulatory oversight whatsoever.
Start with the obvious question: how much protein are you actually getting per scoop? Most decent powders fall somewhere around the 20-25 gram range. That's enough to make a real dent in your daily intake, especially if you're trying to push past the 100-gram mark without eating chicken six times a day.
Medieval medical writers didn't shy away from sexual topics-they offered practical advice, foods to try, and prescriptions meant to boost desire and potency. In one of the Middle Ages' most widely used medical textbooks, the physician Ahmed Ibn al-Jazzar lays out why men might struggle with sexual performance and what could be done about it, from everyday ingredients like chickpeas and turnips to carefully measured electuaries and beverages.
I hate to admit it, but Steve was right. Years ago, I directed a hospital-based weight-loss program. In addition to the nutritional advice from the hospital dietitian and the psychology groups and individual counseling sessions I provided, the program included a beginning aerobic class for the participants. Steve, a personal trainer at the hospital-owned gym, was tasked with leading the twice-weekly "aerobics for beginners" class.
Don't put all your eggs in one basket when it comes to exercise - doing a variety of different physical activities every week is the key to boosting your health and living longer, a study suggests. After tracking the weekly exercise habits of 110,000 men and women in the US for 30 years, researchers found active people who did the greatest variety of exercise were 19% less likely to die during that time than those who focused on one activity. That effect was greater than for individual sports like walking, tennis, rowing and jogging. The total amount of exercise you do is still key, experts say, but doing a range of activities you enjoy can bring lots of benefits.
"So many women in perimenopause feel like something is 'wrong' with them because they've been sold a completely unrealistic story about female desire," Dr. Vanessa Coppola, a menopause expert and founder of Bare Aesthetic and Bare Soul Wellness, tells Scary Mommy. "You're supposed to want sex the same way you did at 25 for the rest of your life, and if you don't, it must mean you're broken or your relationship is failing."
Testosterone is vital to a man's physical strength, body composition, sex drive and mood. But as men get older, they naturally produce less of it. Life Extension's bestselling Testosterone Elite is a non-hormonal dietary supplement that encourages healthy testosterone production in men using clinically studied proprietary ingredients-and it's recently been updated to include Bio-Luteolin™, which is up to 14x times more bioavailable than regular luteolin supplements* and has been shown in a clinical trial to promote healthy testosterone levels.

Sex toys were pretty basic back then. Most were phallic in shape-even if they weren't necessarily meant to be used internally-made of mystery materials, and required actual batteries. The first sex toy I reviewed was a bullet vibrator that not only needed batteries, but its remote control was connected to the toy by a cord that was probably no more than 10 inches in length. Stockpiling AA and AAA batteries to keep my vibrators working was just as annoying as it sounds.
The 70-year-old former software engineer has successfully restored most of his foreskin, a process he started in his 60s. In this edition of the Secret Lives of Men, he tells the story of why he returned his penis to its natural state and how he became a moderator of a foreskin-restoration subreddit, where he teaches others how to tug their missing foreskins back into existence.
Let's talk about something nobody warned us about: watching our mothers navigate their sixties with medicine cabinets that look like small pharmacies. Mine started complaining about joint pain last year, then fatigue, then that her doctor kept mentioning bone density. Every visit seemed to add another supplement to her routine, but half the time she wasn't sure if they were actually helping or just expensive placebos.
