Stuenkel CA – To be complete, comprehensive care of midlife women must include an ongoing conversation about cardiovascular disease (CVD), the number one killer of women. One in 3 female adults has some form of CVD, and close to one half million women die annually from CVD (12–fold more deaths than from breast cancer). Despite common perceptions, for the past 25 years, the number of CVD deaths for females has exceeded those of males! Perhaps most sobering is the frightening statistic that 2 out of 3 of women who die suddenly from coronary heart disease (CHD) never reported previous symptoms.
