Brief Answer:
Age matters.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
Maintaining arousal may often be hard, especially at an advanced age like yours. The hormonal balance also has an important role to play. The apparatus also gathers some amount of rust with time. You would just need to accept that. You can discuss with your treating physician whether certain drugs like sildenafil or certain hormone supplements would help.
Let me know if I could help further.
