A lot of women are never told that things like hormone changes, pregnancy complications, and menopause can all influence their heart health, which means they may miss the opportunity to be proactive.In this episode, I'm talking with board-certified cardiologist and certified Menopause Practitioner Dr. Sindhu Koshy.
