Rejuvenate Your Libido: Sex for Seniors - with Dr. Robert Panvini

We kick off Season 2 of, "We Are Old, Get Over It!" with a suitably provocative subject: sex for seniors. Now that we've got your attention, Dr. Robert Panvini from San Jose, CA, is here to help us learn how to stay healthy and virile, both men and women, regardless of our age.Dr. Robert is a urologist, and as there is often some confusion as to the difference between a urologist and a gynecologist, or indeed at what points do they overlap, he sets the record straight.We chat about the actual science behind hormones, the libido, menopause and sex drive, and how these things change as you get older. Dr. Robert recalls a comment he heard many years ago, that, "Oh, sex is only for young people, not when you're old," but that couldn't be further from the truth!We just need to know how to adapt as our bodies change, and what's fascinating is that Dr. Robert helps us understand why these things happen."We Are Old, Get Over It!" is here to help you get the most out of your golden days, and as you saw in Season 1, we do so with a mix of humour, information, maturity and a healthy dose of encouragement.So make the most of the resources today, and go out and have some fun!For more information and resources, visit:National Institute on AgingAmerican Geriatrics SocietyAARPBooks:Get It Up: Sex for over Sixty, by Gordon D.
