Women reach their hormonal sexual peak the same time men do -- after puberty. There's no crazy physical change that happens in the 30s-40s that would make most women get really horny, though everybody's hormones fluctuate naturally over their lives, as do how we respond to them.

Culturally I think a lot of women are shamed for enjoying sex, so it's only at adulthood that someone is mature enough not to really care about that anymore. Dan Savage (a gay man who ironically gets asked a lot of straight-sex questions) covers this pretty well in his response to WHIP here:
Savage Love by Dan Savage - Seattle Columns - Savage Love - Dan Savage - The Stranger, Seattle's Only Newspaper
The science behind it is nicely explored (where else) in Cracked:
5 Ridiculous Sex Myths Everyone Believes | Cracked.com

No, that is just not true. You can read all of the articles you want but as a female I can tell you that in my very early 30's I was VERY horny all the time. I didnt feel that way in my early 20's or now. Sure I have a sex drive and it's healthy but in my 30's it was totally different.
Maybe chart and graphs say it's a myth but for me it was 100% accurate.

Haha, I love it when people get vulva and uvula confused.

I was being facetious. Putting estrogen cream on your uvula just doesn't make any sense lol. Molotov was being lame in assuming male ignorance

I figured as much, but I was being serious. I have at least two friends who think that dangly thing at the back of their throat is called a vulva. I shouldn't poke fun, I am a worse person because I've never corrected them on it. :tapedshut:

I find that the more mature woman enjoys the excitement of is that huge cock real and then play hard to get this drives them wild wet and dam rampant. when they accidently on perpose rub the bulge in your trousers usually there is no going back. and some times we don't get out the car park.

I've always been wary of the concept of a "sexual peak" for men and women, and certainly skeptical to the idea that such a sexual peak can be generalized in any meaningful way. Everyone has a different body and a different lifetime of experiences affecting the body and the mind. Therefore everyone will find different point in their lives where their libido's are higher or lower (and sexual peak may not simply refer to libido). It is true that sex hormones generally slow in production with age, especially in the US where chronic stress tends to reduce sex hormone production but a "sexual peak" for many people is probably not measured simply by the presence of sex hormones but by other physical and mental factors.

As for menopause you will find significant hormone disruptions in many women in the US (and probably elsewhere but my studies are largely US focused). My beliefs at this time are that such disruptions are the result of various dysfunctions present in the body. One theory I've been studying is that menopause is the time when estrogen production ramps down in the ovaries and ramps up in the adrenals but since the adrenals of so many women are completely shot this leads to a significant disruption of the endocrine system which is the root of many or most of the typical symptoms associated with menopause. Again, this is not going to be true for every woman but it seems like a prevalent pattern in the US.

This falls in line with my research as well. The body needs to be considered as whole and not fragmented. The interaction/dependency of one organ to the other is like a delicate symphony and if one instrument is out of tune there will inevitably be discordancy.

There is a also a basic maintenance of the vaginal muscles and cultivation of sexual energy that can play a big role in keeping the area healthy and vibrant. Just as exercise does for the body in terms of flexibility, strength, energy and overall health. The Indians and Taoists didn't devote so much time towards the sexual arts for nothing. Reaching higher levels of pleasure was not the one sole purpose.

It may be tempting to utilize sythetic hormones to make up for the imbalance however one is still just working symptomatically. Then because these hormones are coming from a source external to the body's natural intelligence/agenda and via the medium of tissues that are not meant for this purpose to begin with, this ends up creating confusion in the body, most especially as to how to utilize/metabolize them properly. From there come all of the "unwanted secondary effects".

Although I just turned 31 and my girlfriend just turned 27 I can imagine a woman's sexual peak is between 30 and 40. I believe it's true.

For women it's harder to find out what really turns them on and it may take several years to find the right position, the right "button" and maybe the right cock? My gf and I have more and better sex now than we used to have when we met 7 years ago. Her sex drive has increased a lot and she knows what she likes best. I don't think has something to do with physical shape since my gf has gained a very large amount of weight over the years (she's over 380 lbs now) but I don't think she's even at her sexual peak right now. It will only get better I assume.....
