Fibromuscular Dysplasia , a disease of the arteries that most people have never heard of, though it may affect as many as 5 million otherwise healthy women in the United States more than breast cancer does. Exercise doesn't cause the condition, but it can contribute to it. By raising a woman's heart rate and increasing the stress on her artery walls, strenuous physical exertion may aggravate the often symptomless disease, causing fragile arteries to tear and leading to a stroke, heart attack and even death. "If you workout, especially if you go at it long and hard, you need to get checked for FMD" says Dr. Olin, D.O. at Mount Sinai school of Medicine.
In people with Fibromuscular Dysplasia - about 85% are women ages between 15 to 60- arteries grow abnormally, but turns narrow and enlarged. This can occur anywhere in the body, but 75% of the time it is in the kidneys, followed by the neck, abdomen, limbs and heart.
No one knows what causes the disease. Because it's seen in women before they hit menopause, some experts believe that female hormones Estrogen is an obvious suspect.
When you are exerting yourself your cardiac output is higher, your blood pressure is higher and the whole system is under great stress. Many people with FMD get headaches, pain in the abdomen, chest or limb
