One of the early menopause symptoms

High blood pressure - if your latest physical exam shows that you suddenly have high blood pressure or hypertension, and your dietary habits have not changed, and you’re not experiencing emotional stress or anxiety, you may be going through early menopause. Blood pressure typically increases once a woman enters her menopause period. It may not increase to high blood pressure levels, but it will almost certainly increase. Many clinical trials over the years have indicated a powerful link between the hormones that a woman’s body produces pre-menopause and her body’s ability to help maintain normal blood pressure. Once menopause is reached, and her body is no longer producing those hormones, the protection is no longer there.
