World Cardiology 2018
Session on Women Heart Health, Hormones, and Heart Disease

Cardiovascular disease is one of the main causes of death among women, accounting for nearly 50% of female deaths. Statistics show that women on average develop cardiovascular disease10 to 15 years later in life than men; this is largely due to the protective effects of natural estrogen. As long as women are having regular menstrual cycles, they enjoy a significant, although not absolute, level of protection. Naturally produced estrogen provides protective benefits and is linked with lower levels of LDL ("bad") cholesterol and triglycerides and higher HDL ("good") cholesterol. When a woman's estrogenproduction falls in her late forties to early fifties, she begins to lose her hormonal advantage.

A decline in the natural hormone estrogen may be a factor in heart diseaseincrease among post-menopausal women. Estrogen is believed to have a positive effect on the inner layer of artery wall, helping to keep blood vesselsflexible. That means they can relax and expand to accommodate blood flow.

Menopausedoes not cause cardiovascular diseases. However, certain risk factors increase around the time of menopause and a high-fat diet, smoking or other unhealthy habits begun earlier in life can also take a toll. Women should take care of their heartthrough regular exercise and good nutrition and by eliminating unhealthy habits like smoking, which may contribute to early menopause, increase the risk of blood clots, decrease the flexibility of arteriesand lower the levels of HDL cholesterol.

To get the nutrients one should follow a dietary pattern that emphasizes:

• fruits, vegetables,
• whole grains,
• low-fat dairy products,
• poultry, fish and nuts,
• While limiting red meat and sugary foods and beverages.

Women should aim for a 120 minutes of physical activity each week to help prevent heart disease, and an hour daily for a weight loss program, depending on individual needs. Walking, cycling, dancing or swimming like activities that use larger muscles at low resistance are good aerobic exercises.
