Sex after heartattack?

 Sexual activity has physical effects on your heart. It makes your heart work hard, increases the heart rate, elevates blood pressure, and causes an increase in oxygen. Exercise has all of the same effects - begin slowly and gradually increase in intensity. It is good for your heart to work a little hard at times, so yes many sexual activity after experiencing a heart attack MAY be good for you. There is no definite answer for everyone as everybody's answer is going to be different. Many people have anxiety or fears about having sex after a heart attack or heart surgery. They are scared that sex will be too much for their heart. 


Talk to your cardiologist about when you can safely have sex again. I am not a Doctor, please referr to your Cardiologist.
