I've been told I have mild left ventricular hypertrophy after a 2D echo test. Is this something that can be reversed if I manage to keep my blood pressure around 12080?

Blood Pressure Control
- Keeping your blood pressure around 120/80 mmHg is crucial. It reduces heart strain and can help improve mild left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH).
-
Reversibility
- With effective blood pressure management, lifestyle changes, and possibly medications, mild LVH can improve or partially reverse.
-
Lifestyle Modifications
- Adopt a heart-healthy diet, engage in regular exercise, avoid smoking, and manage stress to support heart health.
-
Regular Monitoring
- Schedule regular check-ups and echocardiograms to track your heart’s response to treatment.
Consult your cardiologist for personalized advice and management plans.

Right now, I don't have any symptoms, but given my medical history, do you think I should consider hospitalization?

My dad had an angioplasty about six months ago, and now his ECG is showing mild left ventricular hypertrophy. I'm kind of worriedis this something serious? Should we be looking into any treatments for this?
Mild left ventricular hypertrophy can be a sign of an underlying heart condition, but it is not always serious on its own. Treatment may involve managing any underlying conditions such as high blood pressure or heart disease. Medications like Lisinopril (10mg daily) or Losartan (50mg daily) may be prescribed to help reduce the workload on the heart and manage blood pressure. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
