Quick version

Blood pressure is measured using a blood pressure monitor, and it varies between different individuals. Blood pressure can also change during the day and in different situations. If you have low blood pressure, it is more common for you to experience a drop in blood pressure. It can result in symptoms such as dizziness, feeling faint or, in more serious cases, actually fainting. These symptoms sometimes occur when you change position from sitting to standing. Generally speaking, low blood pressure is harmless and rarely requires treatment.

The causes of low blood pressure

Low blood pressure is common and is often associated with age. It can also be caused by a lack of fluid or salt. Other possible causes include heart disease such as reduced pump function in heart failure or neurological diseases such as Parkinson's disease. Another possible cause of low blood pressure is reduced production of the hormone cortisol from the adrenal cortex. These conditions can also cause symptoms such as fatigue, nausea, vomiting and patchy skin changes. It is worth noting that some medicines can also lead to low blood pressure.

Symptoms of low blood pressure may include

  • When the blood pressure drops quickly, it can result in dizziness.
  • You may feel weak and lack energy.
  • Low blood pressure can sometimes cause nausea.
  • The feeling of fainting can occur with low blood pressure.
  • The body's attempt to increase blood flow can be expressed by palpitations.

Questions and answers

Common symptoms include dizziness, fatigue, nausea, heart palpitations, and a sensation of fainting, especially when changing position from sitting to standing.

Causes can include aging, dehydration, salt deficiency, certain medications, heart conditions (such as heart failure), or hormonal issues like low cortisol production.

In general, low blood pressure is harmless and rarely requires medical treatment unless it causes severe distress or is triggered by an underlying medical condition.

Medical comment included

With us, you will always receive a doctor’s opinion from a licensed physician when you order a medical check-up that includes a medical opinion. The doctor’s opinion includes an overall assessment of your results from laboratory analysis. The opinion is individual and may vary depending on the specific tests your medical check-up includes.

What can I expect in the medical report?

The medical opinion will summarize the results of your test results to give you an assessment of your health including any abnormalities outside the reference ranges. In case of abnormalities or need, your doctor may also contact you for a free conversation to explain and talk about your results. Remember that a health check always includes specific test results based on your health and your personal circumstances. Values outside the reference range should therefore always be discussed with a doctor before any decisions regarding possible treatment are made.

What does the doctor look at during a health check?

When assessing a blood test or health check, your doctor will look at several different parameters to evaluate your health and identify any abnormalities. Below are some common aspects your doctor may examine:

Blood counts: Your doctor will check red, white and platelet counts to identify any signs of anaemia, infection or bleeding.

Nutrients and biochemical markers: Includes, for example, analysis and monitoring of blood sugar (glucose) levels, electrolyte levels (e.g. sodium, potassium), liver function tests (e.g. liver enzymes), kidney function tests (e.g. creatinine, urea) and lipid profile (e.g. cholesterol, triglycerides). The results of the tests give your doctor a better idea of your organ function, blood sugar level, cholesterol conditions and other important health aspects.

Inflammatory markers: Your doctor may measure health markers such as C-reactive protein (CRP) or red blood cell decrease rate (SR) to evaluate inflammatory conditions or confirm an active infection.

Hormone levels: Your doctor may monitor your hormone levels to assess hormonal imbalances or diseases, such as thyroid hormones (TSH, T3, T4), sex hormones or other specific hormones such as testosterone levels.

Specific tests: Depending on your goal of your health check or medical history, your doctor may look into specific tests to investigate conditions or diseases, such as diabetes, vitamin deficiency or autoimmune diseases.

In conclusion, the doctor weighs all test results based on the health check to assess your overall health, detect any abnormalities and identify possible underlying medical conditions.

What happens if I have abnormal test results?

If your blood count is abnormal, this will be addressed in your personal medical opinion. Depending on the nature and extent of the abnormality, your doctor may also contact you directly through the test result service for further guidance. Various measures and advice will be provided based on the specific abnormalities observed along with your medical history.
