Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling uncomfortable in my heart. Although I take medication to control it regularly, the effect isn't obvious. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medication. Can people with high blood pressure get pregnant?Doctor's answer:
For patients with high blood pressure, it is generally not recommended to conceive if blood pressure control is not ideal, because the condition of high blood pressure in early pregnancy is relatively dangerous. It can affect the fetus, leading to growth restriction or slow development. Regarding your wife's situation, since she already has high blood pressure, medication should be used to reduce blood pressure based on its level, while a low-sodium and low-fat diet is also necessary. If blood pressure can be controlled, normal conception can be considered. However, if blood pressure control is ineffective, early pregnancy termination is generally required.
