According to the Mayo Clinic, people with hypertension are more at risk of experiencing sexual dysfunction. High blood pressure can cause restricted blood flow to certain parts of the body.

Reported by Express, hypertension in men can cause erectile dysfunction, if not enough blood is sent to the penis. Meanwhile, women experience a decrease in sexual arousal and vaginal dryness.

Silently, high blood pressure can also damage the body for years before symptoms develop.

The inability to have and maintain an erection (erectile dysfunction) is becoming more and more common in men when they reach the age of 50. But men with high blood pressure are even more likely to experience erectile dysfunction. That’s because the restricted blood flow caused by high blood pressure can block blood flow to the penis.

Women can also experience sexual dysfunction due to high blood pressure. Decreased blood flow to the vagina can cause decreased sexual desire or desire, vaginal dryness, or difficulty achieving orgasm. But just because you have erectile dysfunction doesn’t mean you have high blood pressure.

Impotence is very common, and usually nothing to worry about, but you should still consult a doctor if your erectile dysfunction doesn’t go away. Vaginal dryness, meanwhile, affects mostly women at some point in their life. This is caused by menopause, breastfeeding, and certain cancer treatments.

You can lower your risk of high blood pressure by eating a healthy and balanced diet and doing regular exercise. High blood pressure is often referred to as the silent killer, because the symptoms only tend to show up on their own if you have very high blood pressure.

It is very important for all adults over the age of 40 to check their blood pressure at least once every five years. You can check your blood pressure by visiting a local pharmacy or doctor.
