A questionnaire was applied to 93 persons over 60 from the city of Matanzas that are attended by the family phyisician and nurse to deal with some important aspects about sexuality. Most of men maintain their sexual activity and interest, whereas indifference prevails among women. Arterial hypertension and arthrosis are among the chronic non-comunicable diseases suffered by them. Sedatives and antihypertensives are the most used drugs.
