Gestational HBP: In most cases women with gestational hypertension do not have any symptoms and are usually not aware of it. If aware a woman would complain of headaches. The diagnosis is usually made on routine follow up with an obstetrician.

Usually no symptoms : Hypertension does not usually cause symptoms unless extremely high. Treatment options are limited in pregnancy. Patients with this condition should be monitored closely since it may develop/progress into more serious conditions.
