World Menopause Day is held each year on October 18 to raise awareness, break the stigma, and share support available for improving health and wellbeing for those experiencing menopause.
"This World Menopause Day, we need to Listen to Her Heart and talk about the increased risk of heart disease in menopausal women," said Theramex.
Listen to your heart
"At Theramex, we think this little-known complication of menopause has been thoroughly overlooked, yet remains a very real concern. In fact, heart disease is the number one cause of mortality in post-menopausal women," says Theramex.
"If you’re feeling symptoms of menopause, or know someone who is, don’t wait. Seeing a doctor for a cardiovascular risk assessment can make all the difference, because early management is key. Listen to Your Heart."
Did you know that only 2% of employers cover menopause as part of their health and safety training? It’s time to listen to her heart and make a change.
