4 Facts Women Should Know About Heart Disease
Dear Reader,
Used to be that heart disease was thought to be a man's problem. Now we know that heart attack, stroke and other diseases of the cardiovascular system are the number one killer of American women, taking the lives of nearly 400,000 women each year according to the American Heart Association. This is more than the next three causes of death combined. What's more, while deaths from heart disease are going down for men, they are going up for women.
Yet women are the ones more often underdiagnosed and as a result, undertreated.
The chief health and medical correspondent for ABC News, Dr. Richard Besser, recently held a tweet chat event to bring awareness of this issue to the general public. Lots of experts tweeted advice and facts, and women tweeted their own personal stories. Here are four key facts on women and heart disease that came to light.
FACT 1. Women don't always realize they're having a heart attack according to Dr. Suzanne Steinbaum, who is a spokesperson for the American Heart Association. We don't know what a heart attack feels like, and often have the expectation that our symptoms will be the same as men. Yet often symptoms are different for women. A woman having a heart attack can have shortness of breath, flu like symptoms, jaw, neck and back pain or fatigue in addition to the more well known chest pain, pain that radiates into the shoulders or arms as well as nausea or dizziness.
Also women don't always link physical signs and symptoms with a cardiac event. This means that a woman is 15% more likely to die from a heart attack than a man. They are also two times as likely to have a second heart attack sometime during the six years after the first. Doubt is a factor, with a woman often thinking, "I can't be having a heart attack," and yet they are.
FACT 2. Women have heart attacks later in life than men do. The average age for a man's first heart attack is 66, for women, it's 70 years old according to the American Heart Association. Doctors know that the risk of heart attack goes up for women after age 55 when they've finished menopause and no longer have the protective benefits of the hormone estrogen that's naturally been produced by the body up to this point. Menopause is the great equalizer in terms of heart disease, with estrogen levels dropping by 90% and the type changing to the kind produced by fat cells and not by the ovaries,
This doesn't mean a younger woman is not at risk, for those of Latino descent have a higher risk of heart attack a full ten years earlier than most others. This was demonstrated by chatters who told stories of going through open heart surgery at just 39 years old.

4 Facts Women Should Know About Heart Disease Continued...
FACT 3. Health events that take place during pregnancy can be risk factors later on in life. Conditions like preeclampsia, gestational diabetes and high blood pressure are things that can happen during a pregnancy but have effects that hang around long after the baby is born. Preeclampsia ups the risk of heart disease at midlife, gestational diabetes often leads to glucose intolerance and other prediabetic conditions that contribute to obesity. Reducing these risk factors during pregnancy is good for you and your baby.
FACT 4. Men and women share the same heart disease risk factors. No matter who you are, there are certain lifestyle choices that increase your risk of heart disease... smoking, having high blood pressure or high cholesterol, being diabetic, obese or having a family history, as well as increasing age, are considered the biggest heart health risks. While you can't change you age or family history, both men and women can do something about the other risk factors to tip the odds in your favor.
All the participants stressed that prevention of heart disease should start early. Know your numbers (blood pressure, cholesterol, body mass index) and eat as healthy and balanced a diet as you can, while also getting regular exercise. The good news is that you're never too old to start doing what you can to keep your heart healthy.
To your good health,
Kirsten Whittaker
