Discussion of underlying conditions of Hypertension:
PCOS also is linked to other diseases that occur later in life,
such as insulin resistance, Type II diabetes, high cholesterol, hardening
of the arteries (atherosclerosis), high blood pressure, and heart disease.
(Source: excerpt from Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): NWHIC)
About underlying conditions:
With a diagnosis of Hypertension,
it is important to consider
whether there is an underlying condition causing Hypertension.
These are other medical conditions that may possibly
cause Hypertension.
For general information on this form of misdiagnosis, see Underlying Condition Misdiagnosis
or Overview of Misdiagnosis.
