The prevalence of sexual activity decreases with age, particularly among individuals over 60 years old. Although physical dysfunctions, such as erectile disorders, play a role, the decline in sexuality is also linked to cultural and social factors, such as stereotypes and the loss of a partner. Sexuality in adulthood impacts both mental and physical health, contributing to better quality of life and reduced risks of cardiovascular disease and cancer. Maintaining a fulfilling sexual life among older adults is a public health issue that remains underexplored, particularly regarding its relationship with mental health.
Primary objective To explore the association between sexuality and mental health in community-dwelling older adults.
Secondary objectives To study the relationships between the different dimensions of the questionnaires (ISS, QLQC30, HAD) To examine the association between sexuality and psychotropic drug use To compare sexuality and mental health among older adults belonging to senior associations and those living in independent residences
