CORRECTING SEXUAL PERFORMANCE PROBLEMS: BIOLOGY

Contrary to popular beliefs, concerns about "safe sex" did not begin with the onset of the AIDS epidemic of the 1980s. Heart patients and their mates have long been plagued by the question of whether sexual activity and sexual response are physically safe.

Other couples are so worried by this fear of death that they reduce their pattern of lovemaking to a brief and anxiety-laden form of biological release. In so doing, they deny themselves the intimacy and playfulness that sexual fulfillment should involve. For still other couples, sexual fulfillment and enjoyment diminish in the months and years following illness because of ignorance; they misunderstand the sexual consequences of medications and aging.
Let us look more closely at each of these issues—physical strain, aging, and medication—as they relate to sex and heart illness.
