1. Can aortic stenosis be treated with medication?

No. Medicines only ease symptoms. Definitive aortic stenosis treatment requires valve replacement.

2. How fast does aortic stenosis progress?

It can stay stable for years. Once aortic stenosis symptoms appear, it often worsens quickly.

Mainly through echocardiography, which confirms the aortic stenosis presence and severity.

Without treatment, survival is often 2 to 5 years for patients with severe symptomatic AS. Valve replacement greatly improves outcomes.

You cannot fully prevent it, but managing aortic stenosis risk factors like high BP, cholesterol, and smoking may slow progression.
