Heart Disease and Women's Health

According to the CDC, heart disease is the leading cause of death for women.

Prevalence

Approximately 697,000 women die from heart disease each year, making it a critical public health concern.

Presentation of symptoms

Women may experience different symptoms of heart disease compared to men. While chest pain is a common symptom in both genders, women are more likely to experience other signs such as shortness of breath, nausea, fatigue, and pain in the neck, jaw, or back.

Risk Factors

Women face unique risk factors for heart disease, including hormonal changes during menopause, pregnancy-related complication such as gestational diabetes or gestational hypertension, autoimmune diseases, osteoporosis, anemia and conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). These factors can contribute to the development of cardiovascular issues.

Awareness and Impact

Despite its prevalence, many women are unaware that heart disease is a significant threat to their health. This lack of awareness can lead to under diagnosis and under treatment of heart conditions in women.

Understanding these aspects is crucial for improving awareness, prevention, and treatment of heart disease among women.
