  1. A normal blood pressure would be below 120/80 mmHg.

    If its 2-3 off, I wouldn’t worry about it. But do try to lower it into the normal range.

  2. You would have to talk to your doctor-
    It depends on alot of things about you- like weight and age and diet and excercise…
    eating smart and healthy are imortant, and walking at least 20 minutes a day is very important… for your physical well being… Or if you like to swim then go swimming for at least 20 minutes-

  4. For men and women it is the same. 120/80 is normal. 150/90 would be mildly hypertensive. If your systolic (1st number) is over 160 or diastolic (2nd number) is over 100, your doc will probably recommend meds. Systolic over 190 or diastolic over 115 is getting into very dangerous territiory. Hope that’s enough info.

  5. Any level of high blood pressure needs to be addressed/treated. Here is a simple recent nomenclature for blood pressure

    Normal 160systolic or >100 diastolic

    As regards your specific question, if blood pressure is above 180/110 you need to be treated emergently.

  6. My Dr. told me when the diastolic the bottom number gets to be 90,and the top number systolic about 190, so it would look like this 190/90. I also was having headache very often.Some people will get dizzy. High blood pressure is not good ,because it takes away the pliability of our blood vessels and that can lead to worse conditions. Good Luck and God Bless

  9. 120/80 - normal

    140/90 - high blood pressure - but a high/normal, not very very serious, anything over this is high blood pressure

  10. HBP is often seen as a “men’s problem” but more and more females - even young ladies - are finding that they too are evening the score. Good news is that there is a lot you can do to remedy the problem without the use of dangerous drugs. Take a look if you have time:
    Good luck with it!
