How do you pronounce hemorrhagic stroke?

I heard the term 'hemorrhagic stroke' on the news recently, and I'm not sure how to pronounce it correctly. Could someone please write out the phonetic pronunciation for me? Just want to be able to say it right.

It is pronounced as 'hem-uh-raj-ik stroke'. Breaking it down makes it very simple to say.

Bro, these medical terms are literally tongue twisters. Just say 'hem-o-raj-ik' stroke, that's how my biology professor says it in college.

I always get so nervous and fumble while saying this name to the doctor. Does anyone else also feel scared that they are pronouncing medical conditions completely wrong during checkups?

It sounds like a super complex ingredient, but it's basically 'hem-uh-rah-jik'. Much easier to say once you practice it slowly a couple of times!

Haan na, starting me toh mujhe bhi bilkul bolte nahi aa raha tha. It is basically 'hem-uh-raj-ik' stroke. Break karke bolo toh ekdum easy ho jata hai.

I was just reading about different types of strokes online and was trying to search the correct audio pronunciation. Saying 'hem-o-raj-ik' stroke slowly is the correct way.
