In this regard, Dr. Heba Kotb, a marital relations consultant, pointed out the error of the common belief that a man after the age of seventy lacks the ability to have an intimate relationship.
Qutb explained in previous television statements that men after the age of seventy can have intimate relations, but at a lower rate than in previous age stages.
The marital relations consultant confirmed that men between the ages of 50 and 70 can have sexual intercourse once or twice a week or every 10 days, provided that they do not have any chronic diseases, such as high blood pressure and diabetes.
