Women who experience premature menopause are at greater risk of stroke and heart failure
Experiencing premature menopause can significantly increase women’s risk of cardiovascular events. Such is the conclusion of a study recently published in The Lancet Obstetrics, Gynaecology & Women’s Health, in which over 111,000 women from 26 countries participated. Backed by more than 30 academic and medical institutions, it is considered the biggest international study of the subject to date.
