Speaking of pressure disturbance, they often mean its increase. But people often complain of low blood pressure, or hypotension. This disease mainly overcomes the female sex.
Previously, hypotension was considered almost normal and was practically untreated. Doctors have found a connection between low blood pressure and poor health. The fact is that it causes fatigue, as well as the appearance of frequent headaches, which entails a decrease in working capacity.
Pressure is considered reduced if the upper limit of blood pressure is below 100 mmHg and the upper is below 60 mmHg.
If low pressure disturbs during pregnancy, it is fraught with the fact that the fetus may suffer from a lack of oxygen, which will adversely affect its development.
In reproductive age, low blood pressure increases the risk of developing infertility, since in case of hypotension, hormonal imbalance and, as a result, an irregular menstrual cycle, as well as untimely maturation of the egg, occur most often.
Symptoms of low pressure: weakness, dizziness, fatigue, headaches and heartaches, decreased appetite. People with low blood pressure are characterized by pallor of the skin and excessive sweating of the limbs. Often, women have a menstrual cycle, and in men, a decrease in potency. Heart palpitations may also be noted , while body temperature drops to 36 ° C.
But it happens that the disease does not affect the general condition of the body. In this case, we can talk about the individual characteristics of a person. If, nevertheless, symptoms of low pressure are constantly observed, such as headache attacks, systematic insomnia, and also a decrease in vital activity, then you should seek help from a doctor.
If symptoms of low pressure in a woman were identified, then she urgently needs to undergo an examination to find out the main causes that provoked the appearance of hypotension. Some diseases can affect the general condition. In order to get rid of hypotension, you must first find out and eliminate the root cause of this ailment. Often the reason lies in impaired vascular function.
Another reason for the appearance of low pressure is a neurosis, which develops against a background of depression and stress. If hypotension is complicated by loss of consciousness, then in this case it is necessary to apply medication.
How to raise low pressure? Acupressure helps normalize blood pressure .
Cordiamine is sometimes prescribed. This drug stimulates the vessels of the brain. Many help tincture of Eleutherococcus (can be replaced with lemongrass)
Unfortunately, with age, hypotension becomes hypertension, that is, the pressure becomes elevated.
If you find yourself with symptoms of low pressure or often lose consciousness, then you need to see a doctor, since this disease requires not only treatment, but also observation.
