Be honest with your doctor
Living with high blood pressure doesn't usually mean giving up a satisfying sex life. Talking openly and honestly with your doctor can help better manage your treatment and help you overcome any sexual challenges. Be prepared to answer questions your doctor may ask, such as:
- What medications do you take?
- Has your relationship with your sexual partner changed recently?
- Are you sad or depressed?
- Have you been under a lot of stress lately?
