Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

I have gone through your question. You probably are suffering from PIH

(pregnancy induced hypertension). Loprin will decrease the complications

and there severity . If BP is not well controlled throughout the pregnancy

you stnd risk of fits, your baby my have problems like decreased growth

(IUGR) and rarely a bad outcome of pregnancy . High BP (PIH) usually is

seen in first pregnancy and in people who conceive at an older age

(>35yrs) . You will get more information from your obstetrician who will

take better care of you as well (I am sure)

Hope to have been helpful!

Wishing good health,
