102/74 is good.

Most people think that the medical field wants it to be 120/80 — that’s not true. 120-80 is “pre-hypertension” so anything lower than that… within reason, of course, is good.

If the numbers drop TOO low (like… 70 or 80 over 40 or 50) then there’s a possibility that she’d be dehydrated or her heart wouldn’t be working properly… but 102/74 is fabulous.

    For a petite woman or an individual in excellent shape this BP may be normal.

    Her blood pressure is normal and there is no cause for concern.

    Is this the constant figure? What ppl should know is that it all depends on what you were doing before you got yourself monitored. If your lying down not doing anything, it will come out different. If you were working out, cleaning the house, yelling at kids (lol), it will all show a different BP. I cannot say if 102/74 is normal or not as i don’t know what she was doing before you checked the BP. Also depends on her history of BP.

    That’s a good reading but you should try to get 10 tests and then take an average to know what it is most of the time.

    Im 22, and mine was 100 over 70 something, and my doctor told me it was very low. But she didn’t seem concerned. So yeah, it is lower than normal.
