A study by George University London reports that sudden deaths due to heart problems occurring during or shortly after intercourse may not be a phenomenon exclusive to older men.

The study, which investigated 6,847 cases of sudden death, found that 17 of them, a rate of 0.2%, occurred either during sex or within an hour of intercourse.

According to an article published in The Conversation by David Gage, a lecturer in chemical pathology at the University of Westminster, the average age of those who died was 38, with 35% of cases involving women.

Meanwhile, a previous medico-legal study in Germany, which evaluated nearly 32,000 cases of sudden death over a 33-year period, showed that 0.2% of these were recorded during sexual activity, with the majority of deaths being men, an average of 59 years old, and the most common cause of death is heart attack, Gage points out, adding that studies of sudden cardiac death and sexual activity in the US, France and South Korea have shown similar conclusions.

The deaths reported in the new research were usually not caused by the heart "as seen in the elderly", with the two most common causes being sudden arrhythmic death syndrome 53% and aortic dissection 12%.

The research shows that sudden cardiac death in people under 50 is mainly caused by sudden arrhythmic death syndrome, or cardiomyopathies, and that younger adults with these conditions should seek medical advice about the "risk associated with sexual activity," he writes. Gage.
