Experts Highlight Heart Disease Risks and Symptoms in Women and Young Adults on World Heart Day
On World Heart Day 2026, experts highlight that heart disease symptoms and risks differ notably between women and men, with women often experiencing atypical signs like breathlessness, fatigue, and back pain. Cardiovascular risk is increasingly detected in younger adults, including those under 35, often without obvious symptoms. Early screening and awareness of family history, lifestyle factors, and sex-specific differences are emphasized to improve timely diagnosis and prevention. The need to address gaps in research and recognition, especially for women, is underscored to reduce misdiagnosis and late treatment.
