FAQ
Hypertension, or high blood pressure, occurs when the force of blood pushing against your artery walls is consistently too high. It’s measured in two numbers: systolic (pressure during heartbeats) and diastolic (pressure between heartbeats). Persistent high blood pressure increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other complications.
Hypertension does not typically cause headaches unless blood pressure reaches dangerously high levels, known as a hypertensive crisis. In such cases, severe headaches may occur and require immediate medical attention.
Hypertension itself does not directly cause dehydration, but certain medications used to manage high blood pressure, like diuretics, can increase the risk of dehydration. It’s important to stay hydrated while managing hypertension and discuss any concerns with your doctor.
Untreated high blood pressure can lead to severe health issues, including:
- Heart Disease: Increased risk of heart attacks and heart failure.
- Stroke: High blood pressure is a leading cause of strokes.
- Kidney Damage: Hypertension can damage blood vessels in the kidneys, leading to chronic kidney disease.
- Vision Loss: High blood pressure can damage blood vessels in the eyes, causing retinopathy.
Managing your blood pressure is essential to preventing these complications.
Women are not inherently more likely to have hypertension than men, but the risk varies by age and life stage. Before age 65, men tend to have higher rates of hypertension, while after menopause, women’s risk often increases, potentially surpassing that of men.
Hypertension cannot always be completely reversed, but it can often be effectively managed or significantly improved through lifestyle changes like a healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress reduction. In some cases, early-stage hypertension may be controlled to the point where medication is no longer needed.
