Menapause

And sex, so this is kind of of topic but not completly. I am no where near that age yet, but a friend is and says that her libido is the opposite as what it should be right now. Does anyone know the average of this? I really dont want mine going away.

Do you mean by that that she is very interested in sex? Everyone I know who is that age (ie, my mother and her friends) indicate that sex drops in importance greatly. I don't see that as a huge deal; you just have to make sure the sex you do have is... great.

Menopause can start as early as your thirties although its more common in the forties or later. I know when my mom hit pre-menopause on she had -10% libido. Which was ok in a way because that meant my dad was already prepared for her after her hysterectomy. I'm not sure how he copes though as I get the feeling once a year for his biorthday might be stretching it.
