Risk Factors of Heart Disease – For Women
You can be at risk for heart disease if you:
Smoke
Are overweight
Are diabetic
Have high cholesterol
Have high blood pressure
Have a family history of heart disease
Are not physically active
Are under stress
Are postmenopausal
But, these aren't the only factors.
Your risk also increases if you:
Don't see your doctor regularly
Don't care for your own medical needs the way you do for others.
Still think of heart disease as a "man's disease."
