Sex is not a question of age - but what to do when desire simply fades away? Sex is far more than just the most beautiful side issue in the world; it is medicine for the body, mind, and soul - this is what Sheila de Liz believes. Especially as we age, sex remains important for us to feel good and healthy. But what can be done when libido decreases? Many women over 50 suffer from this and often have no idea what the reason might be, especially when they otherwise feel vibrant and alive. When they bring up the topic with their doctor, they are often met with a mild chuckle or told, "At your age, that's normal." But no one should accept that! The popular gynecologist Sheila de Liz explains with humor, openness, and clear words how desire really works, why it sometimes disappears, and how to bring it back. Spoiler: Good sex, contrary to popular belief, does not only originate in the mind - the secret also lies in a small, often underestimated hormone called testosterone. A manifesto for more desire, self-determination, and really good sex. Even - or especially - in the second half of life.
