Risk Factors
Certain medical conditions and lifestyle habits put people at a higher risk of experiencing a hemorrhagic stroke. These include high blood pressure, smoking, diabetes, brain aneurysm and a history of stroke in the family.
Cerebral cavernous malfunctions in which blood vessels in the brain fail to form correctly also increase the risk of having an intracerebral hemorrhage. The risk factors for a subarachnoid hemorrhage, another type of brain hemorrhage, include bleeding disorders, head traumas, use of blood-thinning medications and cerebral aneurysms.
