Experts Urge Awareness of Atypical Heart Attack Symptoms in Women

Medical experts warn that women often experience subtle, non-classic heart attack symptoms like fatigue or digestive issues, leading to frequent underdiagnosis and delayed treatment.

Risk factors for women include high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, and hormonal changes during menopause, which reduce the body's natural cardiovascular protection.

Doctors recommend that women monitor their blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels, and seek immediate evaluation for sudden breathing difficulties or jaw and arm pain.
