Hormones cause development/growth. Menopause is actually a big problem for women because they slowly turn into men (due to the hormone DHT) and their vaginas shrink and become dry (leading to itching, incontinence), along with plenty of other problems.
Sounds crazy, and no one talks about it, but /r/menopause knows. You can take finasteride to block excess DHT and hormone therapy (cancer risk was assumed and is now being debated) or at least local hormone creams for the vagina.
Older men can benefit from testosterone combined with a pill that keeps their balls from shrinking.
And besides that is the problem of telomeres that prevent infinite cell division, as already explained.
