Suggest Complications With Aortic Valve Stenosis
am 63 yrs old and recently was diagnosed with moderate aortic valve stenosis. I dont experience the symptoms yet...no chest pains, shortness of breathing...etc. Am currently taking anti coagulants as I weight my options about AV replacement. Before diagnosis...i have a fairly active sex life. Can I still have sex?

Well you have moderate aortic stenosis and you are asymptomatic so you can have sex without any problem.however you have to continue follow up every year to see the progression of stenosis. I don't think you should take anticoagulant unless you have atrial fibrillation.
