Can patients with myocardial ischemia have sex?

Patients with myocardial ischemia can have an appropriate sex life, but they cannot do strenuous exercise, so they should also be careful during sex. At the same time, they should develop good living habits, a scientific diet, and correct auxiliary drug treatment.

1. Diet

Eat a light diet low in salt and fat, eat more vegetables such as sweet potatoes, tomatoes, carrots, black fungus, and drink some green tea. Tea contains a small amount of theanine, which has a certain diuretic effect and is helpful for the treatment of myocardial ischemia in patients. Tea also contains vitamin C, which can prevent and treat arteriosclerosis, but it should not be too concentrated.

2. Develop good living habits

Keep your emotions stable, avoid extreme joy or sorrow, get enough sleep, have regular bowel movements, avoid overwork, do not read tense or scary novels or watch TV before going to bed, quit smoking and drink less, avoid heavy physical labor or sudden exertion, and do not exercise after a full meal.

3. Moderate exercise

It can promote the establishment of myocardial collateral circulation. Exercise should be chosen according to each person's physical condition and interests and hobbies, and should be done within one's ability.

4. Closely monitor changes in the condition

Patients who have been diagnosed with coronary heart disease should pay close attention to their own condition and seek medical treatment in a timely manner if there are changes in their condition. In addition, people at high risk of developing coronary heart disease should also have regular physical examinations to detect problems in a timely manner, such as patients with hypertension, diabetes, abdominal obesity, and those with a family history of cardiovascular disease.

5. Preventive medicine

The main purpose is to prevent myocardial infarction or death from coronary heart disease in patients with coronary heart disease. Commonly used drugs include aspirin, beta-blockers, calcium ion blockers, statins, lipid-regulating drugs and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors.
