Hello ladies

I've had high BP since starting perimenopause 3years ago. I'm 53, skipping periods, getting one every 6months now.. I was on BP meds. However 3 weeks ago my BP started to get quite low after taking my meds. 99/68, doctors advise me to stop the meds but check my BP everyday, which is around 113/73 but not more than 122/80 without any bp meds. I'm wondering why my BP has changed, from high to normal readings , its confusing, as I don't know if it will shoot up again at some point. I don't know if it's hormones related BP spike. Any one has experience this problem?

Thanks.
