Women and Heart Valve Disease

Our friends at Global Heart Hub have launched their 2025 campaign for Heart Valve Disease Awareness Week and it is specifically about Women and Heart Valve Disease issues

Please check out their global report and important information below:

"💔 Too often, women’s heart health is overlooked.

Heart Valve Disease affects women equally to men, yet they are:

➔ Under-diagnosed

➔ Diagnosed later

➔ Treated at a later stage, with poorer outcomes

Too many women have their symptoms dismissed as anxiety, menopause or stress. We must change this.

It’s time to ensure women have timely access to diagnosis, treatment and care. It’s time to take women’s heart health seriously.

💬 Join us and share this important message to improve detection, diagnosis and treatment of Heart Valve Disease for everyone around the world.
