Well i just came form my 6 week post partum check and my BP was still high ( i had pregnancy induced hypertension) it was 160/100!!!!! My OB suggested i see an internist to be put on meds! I am so upset! I am only 26, does this mean i will be on BP meds my whole life? I noticed my BP climbing since my 1st baby was born 10 years ago, i also had BP issues with that pregnancy. I wonder how many of you with PCO also have BP issues and how do you treat it.

It is more common than you know.

My nephew developed HBP at age 13.

So it can happen at any age.

There are so many meds out there.
I know others will come along and give you more info for that.

Good Luck and get your treatment!

Don't know if this will help you and I'm definitely NOT the losing weight will fix all your problems kind but...

I had high BP while I was TTC. I had started LC'ing to lose weight to help with the TTC issues and after I had lost about 10-15lbs, my BP was back to normal.

Probably not the same issues you have though because my BP was fine during pregnancy. It had started to go up a bit near the end but I delivered at 38 weeks and it never got out of hand before that point.

Sorry I don't think this helped much but that's the extent of my knowledge
