Two people explain how couples can keep having penetrative sex during menopause. They suggest using a vibrator for clitoral stimulation, talking openly about what's changing, and reassuring each other that attraction doesn't disappear. Many men wrongly feel responsible for their partner's arousal or worry she'll stop being interested.

You know, if you want to continue to have penetrative sex, she can just focus on the clitoral area with her little vibrator and you guys can go at it.
This has to do with, are you able to have a conversation with your sexual partner? Commitment is to reframing this experience. And so, to be honest, some men have the same because they feel like, oh, if I don't make you wet enough, then it's wrong with you, or it's wrong with me, or you're not that attracted to me. And so again, this ability to have the conversation that it's some changes that are happening with me, I am still attracted to you.
