Can Menstrual Cycle Elevate Blood Pressure Levels?
Can your menstrual cycle elevate your blood pressure? 25/5'4/120lbs. My blood pressure became elevated after I had my baby 3 months ago. They monitored it and put me on bp meds for a month. I have then stopped taking them but I recently noticed this week that it is high and my cycle has just begun.
Pregnancy is condition which tends to increase blood pressure. most of the time high bp resolve after pregnancy but patient will be at higher risk of blood pressure in future however in some patients it remains high and need to be treated. so consume low salt diet and regular exercises, healthy lifestyle and take proper medicine. Also keep track of blood pressure because high blood pressure is silent killer
