Asthma & Sex

Does Asthma affect your sex life?

In the Reducing Emergency Asthma Care In Harlem Project, researchers examined the impact asthma has on sex life. Of 356 asthmatics presenting to the ER for asthma care:

• 80% of asthmatics participated in sexual activity in the 2 weeks prior to their emergency room visit
• 60% reported some limitations in their sex life
• Sex was the 15th most common asthma limitation reported
• Sexual impairment was the 3rd most important limitation reported by the patients after ability to climb stairs and ability to do housework.
