5 Symptoms Women Above 40 Must Take Serious
As women approach their 40s, their bodies go through many changes as the signs and symptoms leading up to menopause begin to flash. This natural step in the aging process marks the end of the reproductive years.
Here are five symptoms every woman in her mid-40s and older should take seriously.
Chronic fatigue
Research finds that in the weeks preceding a heart attack, the most common symptom for women is unusual fatigue.
Hot flashes
Sudden intense flushing and sweating in the upper body especially the face, neck, and chest is a normal and frequent experience for women approaching and in menopause. But excessive and severe hot flashes may indicate something isn’t right.
Depression
Our emotional health is intrinsically tied to our physical health. Therefore, it’s not surprising that women with depression have a higher risk for cardiovascular disease later in life compared to men.Shortness of breath
After fatigue and sleep problems, shortness of breath is the most common heart attack warning sign in women.
Migraines
Migraines are three times more common in women than men. They can be crippling, so it’s not surprising that they’re the fourth leading cause of disability in women.
