Heart failure linked to early menopause


Early menopause occurs when a woman reaches the end of her reproductive age early.

More than a decade after 28,519 women had experienced the menopause, an analysis revealed 5.2 per cent of them had been admitted to hospital with heart failure.

Women who never gave birth were also found to be more at risk of diastolic heart failure, a problem affecting the left side of the heart.

Shorter reproductive duration is associated with increased risk of heart failure might be due to the increased coronary heart disease associated with early menopause.
