Cardiovascular Problems in Females

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death globally, and they affect both men and women. However, there are certain aspects of CVDs that are unique to women due to biological, social, and environmental factors.
 
Heart disease can manifest differently in women than in men. For example, women are more likely than men to experience atypical symptoms during a heart attack, such as nausea, shortness of breath, and back or jaw pain.
 
Some risk factors for heart disease are more potent in women. For instance, hypertension is a stronger risk factor for heart disease in women than in men. Additionally, conditions such as gestational diabetes or preeclampsia during pregnancy can increase a woman's long-term risk of heart disease
