If this stat doesn’t jar you, consider this: 90% of women will experience menopausal symptoms, and by 2025, globally there will be 1.1 billion women in perimenopause. October is officially Menopause Awareness Month, and this year it focuses on raising awareness of menopause and cardiovascular health.
Did you know that coronary heart disease kills twice as many women as breast cancer? Coronary heart disease is very much a menopausal woman’s issue because a woman’s hormones give some protection against CHD. What that means is that when a woman hits menopause, a hormonal imbalance could directly threaten that protection.
At PRFCT’s HER Wellness Clinic, Dr. Valerie Gafori, centers the practice around empowering and informing our patients so they feel 100% themselves into their 40’s 50’s 60’s and beyond giving them the best chance of living a long healthy balanced life!
