What is the normal blood preasure for a 20 year old?

Answer 1

120/80 is the ideal bloodpressure (120 being the bloodpressure at a heartbeat, 80 being the bloodpressure in between heartbeats). Small deviations are acceptable: the peak pressure should be between 110 and 140, the low tension between 70 and 90. From 140/90 up, this is considered high bloodpressure and a risk factor for diseases. A very small difference between high and low (say, 110/90) can also be an indication of a problem. By the way, if you have a lower bloodpressure than the ideal BP, consistently, and you feel healthy otherwise, don't worry about it! There just are people whose bloodpressure is always low, usually very petite females. Personally, I feel fine at 90/60, and not-so-fine at 120/80, actually...

A low bloodpressure combined with a feeling of weakness and dizzyness is certainly a problem, as is a low bloodpressure after an accident or other trauma with blood loss! A very low BP can cause your brain to suffer oxygen starvation, and should be treated by a doctor immediately!

Answer 2

I'm 20 years old (5'4") and my usual resting blood pressure is around 100/69, but the women in family have a history of relatively low blood pressure readings. Generally anything below 120/80 is pretty normal.
