In one of those incredibly rare cases where things work out better for women than for men, it appears a regular, robust sex life into a man's late-50s through mid-80s is linked to an increased risk of heart problems like stroke and heart attack. For women, however, there doesn't appear to be any risk for illness at all - if anything, women who have "highly enjoyable" sex as they age tend to have lower blood pressure.

From that pool of participants, the researchers found that men in their late 50s through early 80s who have sex at least once a week have double the risk of experiencing heart attacks, strokes, or other cardiovascular issues over the next five years, compared to men who didn't regularly engage in sex. And health outcomes are even more grim for men who have enjoyable sex - the researchers found that men who enjoyed sex the most were more likely to suffer heart problems.

Women in their mid-50s through early-80s, on the other hand, seem to benefit from regular, good sex. It has pretty much the exact opposite effect on women compared to men, in lowering women's blood pressure and decreasing the risk of future heart problems. So! What are older folks in heterosexual relationships supposed to do? The study doesn't necessarily offer up any suggestions - but maybe take all this into account if you're someone who has sex with a man in the study's 57- to 85-year-old age bracket. Be careful out there and exercise caution. A sex-induced heart attack sounds like the least sexy way to finish.

Having a heart attack while being sexy. Hmmmm. Tough one.

Females are healthier than males in all aspects.

So, it's not unreasonable to realize that as a person ages, and when their bodies start to be spent ... that a female would outlast the male.



It's a fact that women are healthier than men, due to their sexual organs being internal. Look at any demographic statistics, there are always more females then males, because males die as infants more often then female because their sexual organs are external, so therefore they cannot maintain their body temperatures as easily.



Due to this ... the natural life span of males isn't as long as female.



By the time a man is in his 50's, he's on a downward spiral healthwise, due to the same reason. While the female is still realitively healthy.



This is something we've known for centuries.

Article says viagra can be a contributor because of its effects on the heart while men try to exhaust themselves. I guess for men, maybe try to stay in physical shape so exhaustion is not a factor especially if you are on viagra.

for women, replace every 10 years 😛
