As women enter menopause, hormonal changes can have a significant impact on heart health. The natural decline in estrogen can increase the risk of conditions such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and changes in body fat distribution, all of which can contribute to a higher risk of heart disease.💓

💪This makes regular monitoring and check ups especially important during this stage of life.

Routine health screenings can help detect risk factors early, allowing you to take proactive steps to protect your heart and maintain long term cardiovascular health.

Strong hearts support the lives you care for. 💗

This International Women’s Day, take a moment to prioritise your own heart health.

Early detection of conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes helps protect your long term wellbeing.

Make your health a priority today. Book a heart check up that suits your needs and take a step towards a healthier tomorrow.🫀🌱

Fasting during Ramadan is meaningful for many, but if you have recently undergone heart surgery, your body may still be healing and may need proper nutrition and hydration to recover well.💓

Always check with your doctor before starting a fast or any restrictive diet after surgery to ensure it is safe for you.
