Heart Disease is more common to men, is it true? What are the reasons for this h

People have maintained that women have less heart disease because they cry while men do not cry. And for this reason, people do not pay much attention to the diseases of women. But remove this confusion.


On September 29, while World Heart Day went by making people aware, on this day, such information was also found about which people were still Ajan, or rather they were confused.

A common fallacy that people have with heart disease is that heart attacks occur in men, not women, or very little.

But do you know that women are dying unnecessarily from heart attacks due to this misconception? Unnecessarily because of this perception, she does not understand the symptoms of heart disease and also takes care of her heartlessness. This has been revealed by a report from the British Heart Foundation.

These reports give a serious message in many cases:

Although this research is not from India, if it is related to health, then the place does not matter that much. This report says:

* More than 8000 women died of heart attacks in England and Wales between 2002-13. Because they did not receive as much care as men receive during a heart attack.

* In England, every year around 35000 women are brought to the hospital after a heart attack. That is about 98 women a day and 4 in an hour.

* It is detected late in women and they do not get treatment and care early to cope with a heart attack. It also includes therapy which prevents a second attack. Women also do not change their routines and habits.

* It is a common belief in society that heart disease occurs more to men than women. And many doctors also believe that the symptoms of heart attack are different in women and men.

* Women are 50% more likely to have a wrong diagnosis than men. And a person who is wrongly diagnosed has a 70% higher risk of death after 30 days.

* Younger women also have heart attacks which also need to be taken seriously.


These symptoms of a heart attack in women and men are similar:

It is often said that the symptoms of heart attack are different in women and different in men. But some symptoms are similar in both which should not be ignored.

* Inter-chest pain or discomfort that occurs suddenly and does not end.

* Feels like pressure, tightness, or squeezing.

* Pain that goes to your left hand or both arms, or to your neck, jaw, back, or abdomen.

* Feeling sick, wet with sweat, difficulty in breathing.

* Often this pain is taken lightly and it is believed that it may have happened due to indigestion.

What are the figures in India:


It is not that this report is from England, that Indians should not take it seriously. Rather, after this report, every woman needs to be serious about her heart. Because the figures of India are also no less intimidating.

* In India, more than one crore people die of heart disease every year. Heart diseases (CVD) account for 20.3% of deaths in men and 16.9 percent in women.

* Despite lower mortality rates than men, reports suggest that women are at greater risk of heart-related deaths.

In our Indian society, if women give the least importance to anything, then it is their health. Mostly chest pain is ignored by uttering gas. People have maintained that women have less heart disease because they cry while men do not cry. And for this reason, people do not pay much attention to women's heart diseases. But here the bigger problem than this problem is that women themselves are not worried about themselves. Which is even more serious.
