Quote: BB is convinced the female body loses the ability to safely and effectively have sex a little bit every year after menopause starts or when HRT stops. Kind of like a gradual winding down to zero healthy sex after so many years. It's not that you can't have sex, but if you do there is going to be some consequence, UTI's, irritations from friction, more pain, triggering hot flashes, etc.
I'm tempted to say bunk...from what I know of it, the trapped liquids in the vagina excrete and keep the labia and urethra moist well beyond when sex stops with or without urination. Possibly douche?
Her excuses for not being fit after menopause are not 100% correct. Yes the lining thins, some have dryness, and some may have the blatter massaged from the inside by IC. I'm not a dr. but I would think that this is "convenient" to a point. Can you talk to her dr. with her so you can get a better understanding? Or just talk to her dr for you need to understand this as "your marriage is in jepardy"
