    GlossaryHypotension

    reduced force of blood against artery walls

    Hypotension, also known as low blood pressure, occurs when the force of blood against the artery walls is too low, which can lead to symptoms like dizziness, fainting, and fatigue. While it can be a sign of good cardiovascular health in some individuals, it may also indicate underlying health issues such as dehydration, heart problems, or endocrine disorders.
