**Effect of thyroid hormones on blood pressure** Thyroid hormones have well-known effects on the cardiovascular system and blood pressure regulation. The effects of hyperthyroidism include increased cardiac output, tachycardia, increased pulse pressure, decreased systemic vascular resistance, and increased basal metabolic rate. Decreased body metabolism. Hormones can lead to a change in blood pressure to meet the new needs of the vascular system... In the following, we will examine the direct and indirect effects of hypothyroidism and blood pressure... Blood pressure is the force that blood exerts on the walls of the vessels when it moves from the heart. .. blood pressure is measured by two numbers.. between heartbeats.... normal blood pressure level should be 120 mm Hg x 80 mm.... high blood pressure is considered if the blood pressure is 140 mm Hg x 90 mm Hg or higher.... ### **Secondary blood pressure** Secondary hypertension is high blood pressure that occurs as a result of a disease or medical condition... This means that secondary hypertension can be caused by conditions that affect the blood pressure of the kidneys, heart, or endocrine system... Secondary hypertension also occurs during pregnancy... Secondary hypertension is different from the usual type of hypertension... Primary or normal hypertension has no specific cause and is thought to be due to genetics, poor diet, high blood pressure, lack of activity. And<Does hypothyroidism cause high blood pressure? Yes, there is a link between hypothyroidism and blood pressure....not everyone with hypothyroidism develops high blood pressure, but it's important to know that it can happen....your blood pressure can vary slightly throughout the day....but when your blood pressure stays high, it's called hypertension....hypothyroidism is a risk factor for high blood pressure....thyroid hormones can cause the amount of thyroid hormones to regulate blood vessels blood plays a role....susceptible to high blood pressure...many people attribute high blood pressure or high blood pressure to family history or lifestyle...but in some cases, high blood pressure occurs as a result of thyroid disorders, i.e. hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism...heart and increased stiffness of blood vessel walls....the set of these changes leads to high blood pressure....if thyroid disorders are the cause of high blood pressure, it cannot be fixed by adjusting diet and lifestyle and Blood pressure drugs may not have much effect either... Hypothyroidism is known as one of the causes of secondary hypertension... The relationship between hypothyroidism and diastolic blood pressure can be explained by increased resistance of peripheral vessels... Postpartum thyroid, goiter, non-autoimmune thyroid and subacute thyroiditis... Meanwhile, chronic autoimmune thyroiditis, which is Hashimoto's disease, is the most common cause of gland dysfunction. It is the thyroid... it is that... blood pressure and usually diastolic pressure increases in hypothyroid patients... 3% of hypertensive patients due to hypothyroidism... blood cholesterol and increased fatty acids are also related to low thyroid function... so it increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases... ### **increase in vascular resistance Environment** In laboratory research and findings, researchers have concluded that there is a direct relationship between diastolic blood pressure and thyroxine and thyrothyronine hormones in the population of women over 50 years old with hypothyroidism.. The hormone leads to the contraction and increase of peripheral vessels. In general, hypothyroidism is associated with an increase in arterial or blood vessel stiffness... an increase in systolic and diastolic pressure can cause changes in the vessel wall and decrease the elasticity and stiffness of blood vessels. Thyroid hormone replacement therapy has been successful in reducing systolic blood pressure and preventing secondary hypertension in patients with hypothyroidism. In summary, researchers have concluded that hypothyroidism causes aortic stiffness and high blood pressure (usually diastolic). Thyroid hormone therapy reduces aortic stiffness. does not decrease, in which case antihypertensive treatments improve aortic elasticity and can lower blood pressure in patients with hypertension and hypothyroidism. In addition to blood pressure, artificial replacement of thyroid hormones also reduces cardiovascular risks. According to the results of some researches, treatment with levothyroxine causes an increase in blood pressure in some people... In this research, it was observed that levothyroxine can increase the level of insulin in the blood circulation... **Does hypothyroidism cause heart problems?** Click on the link for the answer..
