Heart disease is the leading cause of death for women worldwide, yet it’s often overlooked until advanced stages. Unlike men, women’s cardiovascular symptoms rarely appear as dramatic chest pain—instead they show up as fatigue, jaw discomfort, or indigestion, symptoms that are too easily dismissed.

In this episode of The Health Pulse, we dive into why women’s heart health has been historically under-researched and underdiagnosed, and how hormonal changes, pregnancy complications, and autoimmune conditions uniquely shape female cardiovascular risk. We reveal how advanced lab testing—from apolipoprotein B and LDL particle counts to inflammatory and insulin resistance markers—uncovers hidden risks that standard cholesterol panels miss.

Most importantly, we highlight how women can use these insights to move from uncertainty to empowerment, taking proactive steps to safeguard their cardiovascular health before problems escalate. This isn’t just about prevention—it’s about building a healthier, stronger future with clarity and confidence.
