WOMEN'S HEALTH SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS
Women have a lighter bone structure than men, which makes them prone to osteoporosis and broken bones as they age. The lighter bone mass also makes them susceptible to weakening bone mass as women age. There are various treatment options women have when dealing with bone health, and it is vital that women are aware of their bone health from an early age. The way a woman treats her bones in her twenties can affect her bone strength in her eighties. Calcium supplementation and medication which helps to restore bone strength are treatment options available to women through their physician. Osteoporosis can lead to a loss of independence in older women.Women are more prone to heart disease than men. Women are not only more likely to have a heart attack than men, they are also less likely to survive one. Heart health is particularly important for women, as over 350,000 women in the United States alone die annually from heart disease. A healthy lifestyle is the best defense against heart disease. Promoting women’s heart health to increase public awareness is especially important, and physicians who understand women’s health are most likely to effectively promote women’s heart care needs.
