Having Sex After a Heart Attack

Serious health issues like heart attacks, or other similar conditions, make us put our sex life on a second plan and that is sometimes precautious at least for a short period of time before our medical state is back to normal. But after we get stabilized, we shouldn’t keep the fear of not enjoying a good orgasm, not unless we are doing it the right and responsible way. There are changes that our sex life suffers after such a serious medical condition as a heart attack. And the consequences need to be incorporated into a new form of reaching sexual pleasure and satisfaction if we want to continue to enjoy a healthy life after such an experience.

1. Train your erection

One of the most common consequences that a heart attack has on a man’s life is the delay of his erection. Men who went through this find it hard to keep an erection for as long as they used to, and it can be quite frustrating because the sex drive doesn’t get lower after a heart attack. However, the erection does. But this can be fixed with patience and a loving partner. Talk about your concerns and take your time during sexual intercourse that way you learn again how to find a steady rhythm to satisfy both of you. It is important to remember that your partner needs to find sexual pleasure and satisfaction as well and finding a common ground after you suffered a heart attack is a common goal. Over time, you will not only learn to control your intimate life like you used to, but you will also enjoy those intense orgasms as well!

2. Be ready for side effects

Medical treatments after a heart attack can be rough on your body and can have several side effects. Some of these side effects are connected with your sex life while others are not. As overwhelming as it can be to adapt to them and accept them, it is better to be aware of them in order to be prepared. Share the side effects with your partner so that they will not take your change personal. Many couples face a hard phase after such an unfortunate event because they don’t understand fully what is going on and they are not dealing with the side effects together. If your sex drive is lower due to certain pills, be ready for it. Also, such treatment can affect your erection even more.

3. Sexual stimulation might be your new best friend

But there is a pleasant part too. You will appreciate sexual stimulation a lot more after a heart attack. You will discover that intercourse is not the only way to get to an intense orgasm and having sexual stimulating games with your partner can be just as exciting if not even more. There are plenty of toys and accessories that you can use together to discover new levels of sexual pleasure. Penis pumps are great for dealing with erection problems after a heart attack. And for men that are into some kind of anal play, butt plugs are a great alternative to the sexual intercourse version of it. Speaking of anal play, prostate stimulators tend to offer guys an intense sexual satisfaction as well. As for your partner, there are plenty of dildos and vibrators that they can enjoy to join you in a session of common masturbation! Use your imagination and creative skills to discover new and exciting ways to give yourself sexual pleasure and satisfaction. If you know your body well enough and if you are willing to discover new sides of your sexuality, this will be an intense process. And your partner will be more than happy to join you in this new adventure. After all, intimacy is not always about intercourse and can be easily achieved through other ways.
