Hello,
This is Dr. Dipti Singh here to answer your query.
Gum bleeding is most likely not related to hypertension. There can be other causes which can be ascertained only by a physical examination. However the most likely possibility could be infection of gums.
I urge you visit a dentist and get oral cleaning done.
