    Effects of Aging (Female/Male)

    • Female: thinning/graying of pubic hair, loss of elasticity, shrinking of internal organs, decreased vaginal lubrication, increased need for stimulation and lubricants, breast atrophy
    • Male: decrease in testosterone and sperm, decrease in testes size, loss of elasticity of penis and scrotum, thinning/graying of pubic hair, need for greater stimulation for erection, decreased ejaculate volume, enlarged prostate

    Cervical Cancer

    • Most common cause is HPV (Human Papillomavirus)
    • Symptoms include abnormal cervical bleeding
    • Risk factors include early age at first intercourse, multiple sex partners, smoking, and males who smoke/have a spouse with cervical cancer
