Could pills for high blood pressure affect a mans ability to ejaculate? He still gets an erection, no problems with that but most times he cannot ejaculate.
Answer:Yes, unfortunately that is actually one of the effects of anti-hypertensive drugs.
You see, the heart is a systemic organ. Whatever ailments it has will affect your entire body system. The pills/drugs taken for hypertension are meant to relieve the pressure from the heart, but in the process also slows down other system - sorry but that includes the sexual activity. That is why, he may not complete the entire process.
Consult your doctor. He may have a solution to this. He could change the medication.
Yes. High blood pressure, high cholesterol, alot of different things. Speak with your Dr. about solutions.
some times, send him back to the dr and ask to change his pills for that reason. there are lots of kinds of blood pressure meds.
you must talk to your doctor on this as he may change the prescription for that.
~It could very well be. A lot of medications have sexual side effects. I recommend you look up the name of it on webmd for side effects. I'm sure it will cause this, how disappointing. There is a drug that may counteract it, it's called Wellbutrin. See if he'll talk to his doctor. Good luck.~
