“…The decline in hormones following menopause, especially low estrogen levels, affects blood flow, putting more strain on the heart to ensure proper blood circulation, leading to increased blood pressure [ 3 , 4 ]. Sometimes declining metabolism in menopause makes women less active causing increase in weight gain, which leads to high blood pressure contributing to many morbidities especially cardiovascular disease.…”

“…Blood pressure was recorded in the sitting position after five minutes of rest using standard mercury manometer. Hypertension was diagnosed when systolic BP (SBP) > 140 mmHg and/or diastolic BP (DBP) > 90 mmHg or a known hypertensive patient [4]. BMI (weight in Kg)/(height in meters) 2 was calculated and overweight and obesity was considered when BMI was between 25-29.9 kg/m 2 and more than 30 kg/m 2 respectively.…”

“…Postmenopausal women have an increased risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular morbidity and mortality, probably due to the appearance of major risk factors such as dyslipidemia, diabetes, obesity and hypertension [4,5]. Many metabolic pathways may be affected in postmenopausal women due to a decrease in estrogen production which may lead to insulin resistance, increased body mass index (BMI) and dyslipidemia [6][7][8][9][10].…”

Introduction: Increase in blood pressure is the leading cause of comorbidity, especially cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, but its variability represents an independent risk factor for the same in menopausal women. Dramatic decrease of estrogen production in menopause interferes with many metabolic pathways leading to insulin resistance, increased body mass index (BMI) and dyslipidemia hence cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. In this study an assessment of the variability of blood pressure in postmenopausal women and its association with BMI have been highlighted.Method: In this cross-sectional study, a total of 175 postmenopausal females more than 50 years of age who were admitted to or visited medicine wards with no known major medical condition were enrolled between June and July 2019. Recording of both diastolic and systolic blood pressure of postmenopausal women was done at 6 am, 12 pm and 7 pm manually by mercury sphygmomanometer. In addition, BMI, neck circumference, and lipid profile values were also recorded.Results: Variation of both systolic and diastolic blood pressure at 6 am, 12 pm and 7 pm in association with various parameters like BMI (more than 25 kg/m 2 ) were 128.

“…Menopause ditandai dengan penurunan produksi hormon ovarium secara signifikan, terutama estrogen dan progesterone (Dosi et al, 2014). Setelah menopause, menurunnya kadar hormon, terutama estrogen, memengaruhi aliran darah dan meningkatkan beban kerja jantung untuk menjaga sirkulasi darah yang optimal, yang berkontribusi pada peningkatan tekanan darah (Maheshwari & Maheshwari, 2017;Jain et al, 2022)…”

Fase menopause adalah masa transisi ditandai dengan penurunan produksi estrogen yang dapat berdampak buruk pada kesehatan kardiovaskular termasuk tekanan darah. Lansia rentan terhadap gangguan kesehatan yang berdampak dari beberapa aspek seperti pilihan gaya hidup, hormon dan aktivitas fisik. Penurunan tingkat aktifitas fisik yang dapat berdampak negatif pada tekanan darah, kesejahteraan fisik dan mental wanita. Tujuan penelitian untuk memahami bagaimana tekanan darah dan aktifitas fisik berhubungan. Pada penelitian ini, analisis regresi digunakan dengan pendekatan cross-sectional. Penelitian ini difokuskan pada wanita menopause yang berdomisili di Posyandu Dusun Banjartengah Kabupaten Malang. Untuk penyelidikan ini, ukuran sampel sebanyak 32 peserta dibuat dengan menggunakan metode purposive sampling. Tensimeter digunakan untuk mengukur tekanan darah, dan Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ) digunakan untuk mengukur aktivitas fisik. Data diperoleh melalui penggunaan analisis statistik Chi-Square. Pada wanita menopause terdapat korelasi antara tekanan darah dengan aktivitas fisik yang ditunjukkan dengan uji korelasi data analisis Chi-Square yang memiliki nilai p-value 0,045 kurang dari 0,05. Pada wanita yang mengalami menopause, terdapat hubungan antara tekanan darah dan aktivitas fisik.
