	~~'''Overview'''~~		Hypertrophic [[cardiomyopathy\|cardiomyopathy]] is a rare [[heart\|heart]] condition that primarily occurs in men. It is an [[inherited disease\|inherited disease]] that causes the muscular walls of the [[ventricles\|ventricles]] to become significantly thicker, from around 12 mm to 15 mm or more. This makes it harder for the heart to diastole (relax) and fill with blood, and for contraction and the removal of [[blood\|blood]] to occur. This effect it has on pumping blood efficiently around the body results in symptoms that include, shortness of breath and swollen legs. There is also a significant risk of a myocardial infarction.
