Question

Do Hormonal Changes Cause High Blood Pressure?

Answer 1

High blood pressure:

1. The long-term strain of the blood on your artery walls causes high blood pressure, often known as hypertension.
2. Hormonal changes are not the only reason for elevated blood pressure.
3. As estrogen levels drop, your blood pressure rises, making your heart and blood vessels harder and less elastic. As a result of these changes in blood pressure, you can develop high blood pressure.
4. Endocrine hypertension is a type of high blood pressure that results from a hormonal imbalance.
5. Aldosterone, a hormone that is often overlooked, can contribute to high blood pressure.
