What are the peculiar features and frequency of complaints among young women with idiopathic arterial hypotension compared to those with normal arterial pressure?
Young women with idiopathic arterial hypotension experience a significantly higher burden of somatic complaints, including dyspnea, chest pain, and reduced physical activity, compared to normotensive peers.

Higher symptom burden in young women with IAH warrants clinical inquiry; cross-sectional data leave open causality and need for prospective studies.
Aim. To study the peculiar features of complaints among young women with idiopathic arterial hypotension (IAH) and determine their frequency. Materials and methods. Comparative analysis of complaints frequency between two groups of women aged 18–23 was carried out: the test group of patients, suffering from IAH (n = 210) with SAP 97 (92–98) mm Hg and the control group (n = 96) with normal arterial pressure with SAP 123 (121–125) mm Hg. Results. 58 % of women with IAH walk less than 5 km a day that is reliably more frequently compared to women with normal arterial pressure. Women with IAH, having moderate physical and emotional load, more often have complaints of dyspnea (25 %) and thoracic pains (40 %). When suffering from IAH, patients more often complain of pain in their legs, especially while walking (35 %), dizziness (38 %), pain and paleness of hand and leg fingers in cold (36 %); 12% of women with IAH have nocturia.
