❤️Heart disease is the #1 cause of death for women and many women don’t realize their risk.
At every stage of life, your heart health matters. From birth control choices to pregnancy, postpartum care, and menopause, your OBGYN plays an important role in protecting your heart.
💗 Know your numbers: blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar
💗 Stay active and nourish your body
💗 Don’t ignore symptoms like chest discomfort, shortness of breath, nausea, or unusual fatigue
💗 Keep up with your annual well-woman exams
Pregnancy complications like high blood pressure, preeclampsia, or gestational diabetes can increase future heart disease risk, which makes long-term follow-up care so important.
Your heart and your hormones are connected and we’re here to support both.
