Let’s get real for a second—your body changes as you get older, and yes, that includes your sexual performance. But just because something’s changed doesn’t mean you have to settle for it.
So why does sexual performance shift over time? Here’s a quick, no-fluff FAQ to break it down.
1. Why is my sex drive lower than it used to be?
A drop in testosterone is often the culprit. Testosterone fuels libido, energy, and mood. As you age, your T levels naturally decline, but lifestyle, stress, poor sleep, and weight gain can accelerate it.
Good news: You don’t have to accept it. TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) and hormone optimization can help restore what you’ve lost.
2. Why does it take longer to get or keep an erection?
Blood flow is king when it comes to erections. Over time, plaque can build up in your arteries (even the ones downstairs), reducing blood flow. Stress, medications, and low testosterone can also play a role.
Solution: Treatments like shockwave therapy, lifestyle changes, and testosterone support can make a big difference.
3. Is it normal that I don’t finish as easily anymore?
Yes, and no. Some changes in stamina and sensitivity are part of aging, but if you’re noticing a big shift, it could be linked to medications, nerve sensitivity, or low T. It’s worth getting checked to rule out other factors.
4. Can stress really kill my performance?
Absolutely. Stress jacks up your cortisol levels, which can interfere with testosterone, mood, sleep, and even blood flow. Chronic stress is a triple threat to your sexual health.
5. What can I do to get back to my best?
-
Get your hormones checked
-
Move your body regularly
-
Eat to support healthy blood flow
-
Sleep like it’s your job
-
Consider advanced treatments like TRT, shockwave therapy, or peptides
Bottom line:
Performance changes are common—but they’re not permanent. You’ve got options. The sooner you check in with a men’s health provider, the sooner you can get back to living Limitless.
