According to a U.S. survey of heart attack patients, the resumption of a normal sex life after a heart attack is highly dependent on whether their doctor discusses sex with them after their heart attack.
The researchers, led by Dr. Stacy Tesler Lindau, an associate professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Medicine-Geriatrics at the University of Chicago Medical Center, performed a survey of heart attack patients. In total, 1,184 men and 576 women were surveyed one month and one year after they had a heart attack.
The average age of the men was 59 years, while the women participants averaged 61 years of age.
About 50% of men and around 33% of women reported that their cardiologist discussed with them when it was safe to resume sex after having a heart attack and after being released from the hospital.
In addition, the researchers found that only 40% of men and 20% of women reported having conversations concerning sex with any doctor within one year of having a heart attack.
The WebMD article reports, ''¦ that sexual activity declined for both men and women during the year following a heart attack.'
