For decades (77 years old), I've noticed a reduction in orgasms and ejaculation. I gradually went from every 2 days in my 40's to weekly in my early 70's. Then, about 10 days ago, it quit altogether. I have mild ED, so my penis isn't really hard either. About 2 years ago, my wife was said to have vagina atrophy (shrinkage), which makes it difficult to have penetrative sex. At that time, I started using a male vibrator, while watching porn, to achieve orgasm and it worked pretty well until 10 days ago. No orgasm or ejaculation since then.
I take the usual meds that a 77 year old takes (blood pressure and statins). I went off Metoprolol for several days as a test, but my orgasm didn't return. I take Xarelto blood thinner because of aFib (irregular heart beat). Otherwise, I'm really healthy and my cardiologist only sees me once a year.
I think that my anorgasmia issue may be age. My conclusion is to give up on having an ejaculation. Maybe once in a while, every month or two, who knows. It seems that the frustration isn't worth the pleasure.
In daily life, I seem more comfortable now. My hornyness isn't an issue as much as it has been my whole life. My sex drive is still there at a medium, but comfortable level, but my drive to ejaculate is absent. Kind of a different thing to get used to. I've been very active sexually my whole life and I'm trying to cope with this change.
If my issue is age, there's not much we can do about that. I wonder if this makes any sense or if anybody else has had a similar experience. I'm looking for support to help me make this transition. Any suggestions or words of encouragement will be appreciated.
