A member asked:
Would it be unsafe to have sex while having graves' disease, i haven't done it for months.

Hopefully: You are on beta blockade to reduce symptoms and increase safety. After that, you should be treated with either radioiodine or an appropriate dose of anti-thyroid drugs. Check w/ your doctor. If you are stable, sex should be relatively safe. Keep cool and well hydrated.
