Description
Mirary Mantilla-Morrón and colleagues studied sex life among one hundred old people with more than one long-term illness in Barranquilla, Colombia. The group had a mean age of 72.6 years, and just over half were men. Mood, daily function, and sex life were each rated with proven scales, and health records backed the diagnoses.
A sense of control and of choice stood out as the best signs of a good sex life, while self-growth showed the reverse link. Men scored lower on their own, apart from other factors. Care for old people should thus ask about mood, choice, and control, and not just about pills, pain, and blood tests.
