Steroids And Blood Pressure

[theoness]

Hey guys I'm currently on my 4th week of my test E and deca cycle and I got my blood pressure checked because I've been feeling slightly dizzy at times and it was a little low.
It read 122 over 53 with a heart rate of 80 resting... I'm 22 years old and I'm abit concerned..

Is this anything to worry about?

Low blood pressure is not caused by the steroids, they should raise blood pressure. Are you taking anything else with them?

No nothing atall.. Could it not be down to high dosage which would make the blood vessels dilate thus lowering the blood pressure?

As big said, aas raises BP, not lower it. What are these "high dosages" you're referring to?

Well it was in my front load when I felt the low blood pressure symptoms a little bit more.. So if I come off gear my blood pressure is going to drop even more?

122 is not low...anything over 120 is not ideal and over 130 is where you start getting recommended blood pressure medicine to lower it. You are not considered low til you go below 100. Meaning the ideal range is 100-120 and you are above that slightly...NOT below it.

I was diagnosed mild hypertension and was very reluctant to go on prescription meds so with a little research got onto Hawthorn Berry. Gone from 150/100 140/90 to 130/70 bought myself a monitor and check it 3x a day
