SSM Health Medical Minute: Unique stroke risks in women
SUMMARY: Strokes are the third leading cause of death in women, with one in five women at risk. While often seen as a men’s health issue, women face higher stroke mortality due to longer life expectancy and specific risk factors, such as migraines, hormonal changes, and menopause, especially with hormone replacement therapy. Pregnancy-related strokes, though rare, can be severe if not detected early. Early symptoms include severe headaches and vision changes. However, up to 80% of strokes are preventable by managing high blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, smoking, sleep apnea, and obesity.
Stroke is often considered a men’s health issue, but the reality is it’s the third leading cause of death in women. One in five women will experience a stroke in their lifetime, and understanding the risks and warning signs can save lives.
