هل هناك صلة بين سن اليأس وارتفاع ضغط الدم؟

إجابة من ريخا منقاد، (دكتور في الطب)

يرتفع ضغط الدم بوجه عام بعد انقطاع الطمث. ويعتقد بعض الأطباء أن تغيّر الهرمونات المتعلقة بانقطاع الطمث قد يسبب ارتفاع ضغط الدم. ويظن بعضهم الآخر أن زيادة مؤشر كتلة الجسم في سن انقطاع الطمث قد تكون هي السبب.

يمكن أن تؤدي تغيرات الهرمونات في سن انقطاع الطمث إلى زيادة الوزن. ويمكن أن تجعل التغيرات أيضًا ضغط الدم أكثر حساسية للأملاح في النظام الغذائي. وعندما يحدث هذا، يمكن أن يرتفع ضغط الدم. قد تؤدي أيضًا بعض أنواع العلاج الهرموني لتخفيف أعراض انقطاع الطمث إلى ارتفاع ضغط الدم.

للسيطرة على ضغط الدم قبل فترة انقطاع الطمث وبعدها، ركزي على اتباع نمط حياة صحي كالآتي:

  • حافظي على وزن صحي.
  • تناولي أطعمة مفيدة لصحة القلب. اختاري تناول الحبوب الكاملة والفواكه والخضراوات.
  • قللي تناول الأملاح والأطعمة المعالَجة.
  • مارسي الرياضة معظم أيام الأسبوع.
  • ابعدي عن أسباب التوتر.
  • قللي من تناول الكحوليات أو تجنبيها.
  • إذا كنتِ مدخنة، فأقلعي عن التدخين.

إذا لزم الأمر، فقد يقترح عليك فريق الرعاية الصحية أدوية للمساعدة على خفض ضغط الدم.
