  1. How to Take Care of Your Heart After Menopause

  2. Life Pharmacy is the leading online pharmacist from the UK giving some amazing tips on how to maintain your heart after menopause. Menopause is a critical stage in every woman's life; it occurs when menstrual periods end permanently, usually between the ages of 50 to 54; hot flashes, mood swings, and insomnia make it difficult to get through this phase. In addition to these difficulties, women face a more serious problem: an increased risk of heart disease.

  3. Here are a few reasons for the postmenopausal spike in the risk of developing heart disease: LOWER ESTROGEN LEVELS Estrogen levels during menopause play a significant role in the development of heart disease in women. Estrogen is believed to safeguard women by increasing the flexibility of blood vessels surrounding the heart. The smooth relaxation and expansion of the heart vessels allows blood to flow freely, keeping blood pressure under control. INCREASE IN BAD CHOLESTEROL LEVELS Estrogen raises good cholesterol (HDL) while decreasing bad cholesterol (LDL). Because of this change in women's lipid profiles at the onset of menopause, there is a higher risk of clogged arteries, which block blood flow to the heart, brain, and legs.

  4. BLOOD PRESSURE Although excess belly fat can cause high blood pressure, lower oestrogen levels caused by menopause and ageing can cause blood vessels to become less flexible. MAINTAIN A HEALTHY DIET A healthy diet that is low in salt, sugar, and alcohol can significantly lower blood pressure and cholesterol. The more you weigh, the harder your heart has to work to provide nutrients to your body. Overweight has been linked to the development of heart disease, according to research.
