While most people still think of cardiovascular trouble as primarily afflicting men, the reality is that heart disease has never discriminated between the sexes. In fact, for a variety of complex reasons, the condition is more often fatal in women than in men – it is also more likely to leave women severely disabled by a stroke or congestive heart failure. The common belief that pre-menopausal women are immune to heart problems is simply wrong. Which of the following, if true, would most strengthen the argument?

 

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.

Gender and Ccardiovascular Trouble

Introduction

Women face more health challenges with cardiovascular diseases than men. Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women in the US, but heart disease is often considered a “man’s disease.” Women have more severe heart problems than men. Women often feel pressure to put themselves last and ignore their own needs—like their health. Women are less likely to go to emergency rooms after experiencing chest pain or shortness of breath

Women face more health challenges with cardiovascular diseases than men.

• Women face more health challenges with cardiovascular diseases than men.

• Women are more likely to die from heart disease than men.

• Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women in the US, but it accounts for a larger proportion of deaths in women (about two-thirds).

• Women have more severe heart problems than men do, which can lead to a shorter lifespan if left untreated or undiagnosed by medical professionals such as cardiologists or cardiothoracic surgeons who specialize in this field.*

Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women in the US, but heart disease is often considered a “man’s disease.”

Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women in the US, but heart disease is often considered a “man’s disease.” In fact, women are more likely to suffer from other forms of cardiovascular problems such as stroke or blood clots (thrombosis).

This can be attributed to several factors: Women tend to be smaller than their male counterparts; they tend not to exercise as much or engage in strenuous physical activity; they may have less access to healthy foods or medicine due to social barriers; they may also have higher rates of smoking and drinking alcohol compared with men.

Women have more severe heart problems than men

As a woman, you might be more likely to have heart disease. For example, women who have had a previous heart attack are almost twice as likely to die from cardiovascular trouble than men who’ve had their own heart attacks.

Women are also more likely than men to develop coronary artery disease (the narrowing of the arteries that supply blood flow to the heart), and this can lead to angina pectoris (chest pain) or myocardial infarction (heart attack).

Women often feel pressure to put themselves last and ignore their own needs—like their health.

Women often feel pressure to put themselves last and ignore their own needs—like their health.

Women are stereotyped as caring more about others than they do themselves, but this isn’t always true. Some women just don’t know how to prioritise their time: they’re so busy with work or family that they forget there’s still something else that needs taking care of. It can be hard for them not only because they have so much on their plate already, but also because women tend to feel guilty if they take time out for themselves at all (or even when it comes down to some self-care).

It’s important that we show each other love and support while still maintaining our individuality and independence; otherwise we’ll never achieve full equality between genders!

Women are less likely to go to the emergency room after experiencing chest pain or shortness of breath.

Women are less likely to go to the emergency room after experiencing chest pain or shortness of breath.

Women are more likely to ignore their symptoms, wait to see if their symptoms go away on their own, and assume that they will get better on their own.

Women experience symptoms that aren’t recognized as traditional signs of cardiovascular trouble—like fatigue, sleep disturbances, and nausea

Women experience symptoms that aren’t recognized as traditional signs of cardiovascular trouble—like fatigue, sleep disturbances, and nausea. These can be the first signs of a heart attack or stroke in women.

The lack of recognition is due to how our bodies work differently than men’s bodies do. For example:

• Fatigue is often overlooked because it isn’t “obvious” like pain or other symptoms are (though fatigue may be more noticeable if you’re having a lot to do). However, fatigue can be an early sign that something is wrong with your body; it could mean you need more rest than usual!

Women’s typical symptoms are taken less seriously than men’s symptoms when they come in for treatment.

Women are more likely to be diagnosed with depression and anxiety than men. They also tend to have less severe symptoms when they come in for treatment, which might explain why women are less likely to be diagnosed with cardiovascular disease.

At age 65, women outnumber men two to one with predominately low incomes; they face increased risk of chronic disease, disability and social isolation.

At age 65, women outnumber men two to one with predominately low incomes; they face increased risk of chronic disease, disability and social isolation. Women are more likely to live alone and have fewer social connections than men. They also tend to have greater health problems than men due to the greater likelihood that they will experience chronic conditions such as heart disease or stroke.

Unlike younger generations who grew up in homes where healthcare was readily available, today’s seniors may not be able afford needed treatment for their illnesses or injuries if Medicare doesn’t cover it or if Medicaid does not pay for it due

You shouldn’t ignore your own health needs just because you are busy caring for others.

You shouldn’t ignore your own health needs just because you are busy caring for others. The truth is that women are more likely to put themselves last, while men tend to be more independent and self-reliant. Because of this, women tend to be overlooked in the medical field and may not receive proper treatment for their illnesses or injuries. Women should never ignore their own health needs—no matter what!

Conclusion

So, it is important for women to be aware of their own health needs. We hope this article has given you some ideas about how to take care of yourself and your heart. If you are interested in learning more, we recommend visiting our website at http://www.heartfoundation.org/ or speaking with a doctor
