Menopause and heart health: Understanding the risks
Menopause signifies a significant life transition for women, typically occurring between the ages of 45 and 55. As women age and approach menopause, their susceptibility to heart disease increases due to the decline in oestrogen levels. This hormonal shift, often overlooked in cardiovascular research, exposes women to a heightened risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). In her latest online article, Dr Gosia Wamil delves into the impact of menopause on heart health, drawing insights from key research findings and shedding light on the importance of gender-specific considerations in cardiovascular care.
