Let’s be honest—aging affects everything, even the parts men don’t like to talk about. While gray hair and softer bodies get the spotlight, changes below the belt are often kept quiet. But they’re common—and nothing to be ashamed of.
What’s Happening?
-
Smaller Size – A gradual loss in length or girth can happen due to reduced testosterone, blood flow, or plaque. It’s natural.
-
Softer Erections – Erections may not be as firm or frequent. This doesn’t define your masculinity—it’s just biology.
-
Curving or Pain – Peyronie’s disease (caused by scar tissue) can cause bends or discomfort. It affects up to 1 in 10 men over 50 and is treatable.
-
Scrotum Changes – Testicles may hang lower, shrink, or wrinkle. It’s mostly cosmetic but can still affect confidence.
-
Sensitivity Shifts – You might feel more or less during sex. Hormones and prostate health play a role.
The Mental Side
These changes can shake your confidence—but you’re not broken, you’re just human. Opening up, whether with a partner or doctor, makes a big difference.
The Takeaway
Your sex life doesn’t end with age. With honesty, care, and connection, it can evolve—just like you.
