High Blood Preasure in Women.

Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the inside lining of the arteries. High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, occurs when that force rises and stays higher than normal for a period of time. This condition can damage the blood vessels, heart, brain, and other organs.
            Many people mistakenly believe that high blood pressure, also called HBP or hypertension, is more common among men. The truth is HBP is an equal opportunity disease. Beginning at age 65, after the onset of menopause, women are actually more likely to have this disease than men.

While HBP isn't directly related to gender, certain woman's issues can increase your risk. Discover how high blood pressure relates to your stage in life.
, women are actually more likely to have this disease than men.
Often wonder what the top and the bottom blood pressure numbers mean? Doctors call them systolic (the top number) and diastolic (the bottom number) blood pressure.
Knowing both your systolic and diastolic blood pressure numbers is important and could save your life.
Symptoms:
Most people with high blood pressure have no signs or symptoms, even if blood pressure readings reach dangerously high levels.
Although a few people with early-stage high blood pressure may have dull headaches, dizzy spells or a few more nosebleeds than normal, these signs and symptoms usually don't occur until high blood pressure has reached a severe or life-threatening stage.
When to see a doctor
You'll likely have your blood pressure taken as part of a routine doctor's appointment.
Ask your doctor for a blood pressure reading at least every two years starting at age 18. Blood pressure should be checked in both arms to determine if there is a difference. Your doctor will likely recommend more frequent readings if you've already been diagnosed with high blood pressure or other risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Children age 3 and older will usually have their blood pressure measured as a part of their yearly checkups.
If you don't regularly see your doctor, you may be able to get a free blood pressure screening at a health resource fair or other locations in your community. You can also find machines in some stores that will measure your blood pressure for free, but these machines can give you inaccurate results.
Treatment:
Cap Blendin. (1Cap every 8 hours with some )
Syrup Blendin. (3 teaspoonful every 8 hours)
