Dr Cecilia Eliason, a Senior Lecturer at the School of Nursing and Midwifery at the University of Ghana-Legon has advised people with high blood pressure to stay away from energetic s3x.
She gave the advice on Tuesday, June 21, while featuring on GTV’s Breakfast Show.
According to her, vigorous s3x which is a form of exercise increases the pressure in the heart which can cause high blood pressure.

“It does but it is a form of exercise, after that it brings it down. If you have high blood pressure and you are not on medication, the BP will actually go up before it comes down,” she stated.
Notwithstanding, the doctor stated that sex is a form of exercise which is good for the pumping of the heart.
“Yes s3x is an exercise and after that, it brings your BP down but you should also know your blood pressure,” she added.
She however advised the viewers to do more exercises, especially those with high blood pressure.
“So we encourage the physical activity of at least 30 minutes a day and this 30 minutes you can do it 15 minutes, rest in-between, do 15 minutes and then you rest,” she advised.
