Postnatal Hypertension: What You Can Do About It

Once you know the risk, what do you actually do with that information? In this episode, we get into the practical side of managing blood pressure after birth — from how often to monitor, which devices to trust, and what the numbers mean, to the limits of wearables and where the science is heading. We also explore why cardiovascular disease remains the number one killer of women worldwide, how systemic bias in medical research has shaped the care women receive, and what a more connected, personalised postnatal system could look like. We close with something more personal — what a better start to motherhood actually feels like, in the words of two clinicians who've been through it themselves.
