Estudo transversal de base populacional parte do Estudo Saúde, Bem-Estar e Envelhecimento, realizado no município de São Paulo em 2010, com uma amostra de 1.129 idosos.

Quanto à satisfação sexual, 45,1% afirmaram estar inativos satisfeitos, 6,2% ativos insatisfeitos, 37,0% ativos satisfeitos e 11,7% inativos insatisfeitos. O componente físico da qualidade de vida foi associado à satisfação sexual e as maiores médias deste componente foram encontradas entre os idosos ativos satisfeitos. Concluiu-se que a prática sexual é de extrema importância para a qualidade de vida do idoso, reforçando a necessidade de implantar ações de educação e proteção em relação à vulnerabilidade da sexualidade dos idosos.
