Endocrine Hypertension
Endocrine hypertension, also known as primary hypertension, is a type of hypertension that is caused by a malfunction in the body's endocrine system. It is characterized by high blood pressure that is not well controlled despite taking medication. The exact cause of endocrine hypertension is not known, but it is thought to be related to a hormone called aldosterone, which is produced by the adrenal glands. Some studies have suggested that people with endocrine hypertension may have lower levels of aldosterone than those without hypertension. The good news is that, in many cases, endocrine hypertension can be successfully treated with medication. Your doctor may prescribe a medication that can help regulate your blood pressure, or they may recommend lifestyle changes such as weight loss, a healthy diet, and stress reduction techniques. It is important to note that endocrine hypertension is a serious condition that can cause complications such as heart failure, stroke, or kidney damage if left untreated. Therefore, it is essential to work with your doctor to develop a treatment plan that is right for you.
