While factors like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, and smoking affect both men and women, certain conditions like diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and mental stress tend to pose a higher risk for women. Hormonal changes, particularly during menopause, also play a significant role, altering women’s cardiovascular health.
