US EditionHow Women Experience Heart Disease Differently
- Heart disease is the top cause of mortality for women in the United States, often presenting with symptoms that are less clear or easily recognized than commonly believed.
- Shared risk factors like obesity, high blood pressure, and diabetes contribute to heart disease, while some factors disproportionately affect women, including delayed diagnosis and treatment of high LDL cholesterol.

- Though complete prevention might not be possible, women can understand their risks and take proactive steps to reduce negative cardiovascular outcomes.
