High blood pressure is something that should be taken seriously: left untreated, it can lead to memory loss, heart problems, kidney failure, and hypertension. But if you or someone that you know is suffering from erectile dysfunction (or ED), high blood pressure is a more relevant health risk than you may think.
Often referred to as the “canary in the coal mine,” ED can often be the first signs of something wrong with the heart. Naturally, high blood pressure is also often linked as an issue signaled by erectile dysfunction.
Here are the things you should know about high blood pressure and erectile dysfunction:
What is High Blood Pressure?
High blood pressure is a condition where the force of blood pushing against your artery walls has an increased pressure, similar to water coming out of a hose. Too much pressure can hurt your arteries and make you more susceptible to other serious conditions like hypertension and an increased risk of having a stroke.
This is also why noting your high blood pressure and taking steps to lower it is so important, especially if you have ED.
High blood pressure is incredibly common among adults. In fact, the American Heart Association found that “nearly half of all American adults could be classified with high blood pressure.” Why? Experts think that high-stress lifestyles, unhealthy food, and inadequate time exercising all play a potential role, though it’s hard to gauge what is the exact cause.
The busier our lives become, the more important it is to remain healthy to keep ourselves in the best shape to manage health issues like high blood pressure as they threaten to arise.
What Does This Mean For My ED?
A lot more than you think. Unlike heart attack or stroke, the correlation between sexual health and high blood pressure hasn’t been studied in the ways it needs to. This is a huge problem in itself, as ED and high blood pressure can make long-term health issues more permanent. Some research that has dived into the connection between ED and hypertension have found that while some medications can be used to treat ED, they can also impact male fertility and lower sperm count.
Research still has a long ways to go in terms of getting more information on the connection between hypertension and ED, but what is available has given us valuable access to how sexual health is impacted. Some research has looked at what is available in a meta-analysis, while others have dived into how sexual function is an indicator of “central arterial stiffness” amongst research subjects.
The Bottom Line
High blood pressure is always a serious matter, but especially if you have ED. If you’re considering taking any medication to help manage your erectile dysfunction, consult with your doctor about how it will affect your hypertension. Taking Viagra if you are on Alpha-blockers has been found to potentially have an effect on drug compatibility and safety, so talking with your doctor about what options you have — even if that means lowering your Viagra dosage — will always be a good idea.
In addition to managing your health with the assistance of medication, taking other steps to stay as healthy as possible and lower your high blood pressure will also help to increase your quality of life and help make ED a thing of the past.
