Brief Summary

Sixty postmenopausal women participated in this study from gynecological outpatient clinic, at Al-Zahra universal Hospital, Al Azhar University, and Cairo. They were first diagnosed to be hypertensive in their early postmenopausal period .Their blood pressure ranged between 140/90mmHg to 170/105mmHg, their ages ranged from 50 to 60 years and their body mass index ranged from 30:35 kg/m2.
