Abstract

Cuba does not scape the world phenomenon of ageing. In spite of that elder men and women in Cuba have the guarantee of a stable life and free health services, there are still situations affecting their life, especially in the psychological and emotive sphere. Some of these aspects are related with the sexuality in elder people, especially in elder women. Although many efforts are made for the women´s rights to be the same as for men, there have been always taboos hindering their fulfillment. That is why, it is very important to consider the most important aspects related with female sexuality in elder women. The purpose of this term is to reflect on some considerations related with sexuality in elder women.
