As a medical professional with expertise in cardiology, I can tell you that while stress itself does not directly cause an enlarged heart, it can contribute to conditions that may lead to it. Stress can exacerbate existing heart conditions and lead to a variety of health issues, including high blood pressure, which is a risk factor for an enlarged heart, also known as cardiomegaly. Prolonged stress can also lead to lifestyle choices that are harmful to the heart, such as overeating, lack of exercise, and substance abuse, all of which can contribute to the development of an enlarged heart.

An enlarged heart may be treatable by correcting the cause.
