Hypertension is a condition that harms the health of all people, young people and adults, men and women. However, pregnant women constitute a special risk group ya, since hypertension, at this stage, puts the life of the mother and the baby at risk.It is said that arterial hypertension exists when the maximum or systolic blood pressure exceeds 140 mm Hg and the minimum or diastolic blood pressure exceeds 90 mm Hg. In pregnant women who have high blood pressure, whether it was previously known or they found out during their pregnancy, it is necessary to establish close monitoring. In the latter case, it usually disappears after the baby is born, although it causes an increased risk that these women will develop hypertension in the future.
