Hello. Thank you for posting your query.
I understand your concern.
Women, post menopause lose their sex drive to a significant extent.
As a loving partner, you have to realize that. You can talk to your wife expressing yourself. She will definitely understand. I understand she can't be having sex with you every day, but couples do have sex even post menopause and she has to realize that. It is better not to rush it, talk to her, may be change her environment, make it slightly romantic for her and she will definitely want to get intimate with you.
Regards
