IAWH Women and Hypertension Quiz
High Blood Pressure is a condition that makes the heart work harder than normal. And left untreated, it scars and damages your arteries and can lead to heart attack, stroke, kidney failure, eye damage, heart failure and fatty buildups in the arteries, called atherosclerosis (American Heart Association).

This women's health quiz was prepared for the Institute for the Advancement of Women's Health (IAWH) by Adira Brenner, Senior, pre-med Public Health major, from American University, in Washington, DC.  

GOOD LUCK!
