592. The Female Heart Crisis No One Warned You About

I’m finally tackling a topic we should have talked about a long time ago: cardiovascular disease—the number one killer of women. I’m joined by my friend and colleague, Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj, and we go far beyond the outdated, fear-based conversations most women hear about heart health.

We explore how heart symptoms in women rarely look textbook, how anxiety, fatigue, or just feeling “off” can be warning signs, and how thyroid dysfunction and hormone shifts in perimenopause and menopause dramatically change cardiovascular risk. We also challenge the standard cholesterol conversation, including when statins help, when they’re overused, and what actually drives heart disease beneath the surface.

This isn’t a fear-based episode, but it is an honest one. If you’ve ever felt brushed off while knowing something wasn’t right, this conversation will change how you think about your heart, your hormones, and prevention—before damage is done.
