Women’s Health: A Journey of Discovery and Empowerment
The narrative of women’s health is no longer a whispered secret, veiled in shadows and half-truths. It is a symphony of strength and resilience, a vibrant tapestry woven from the threads of scientific discovery and personal empowerment.
We are at the dawn of a new era, during which the mysteries of our bodies are being deciphered, and the unique symphony of our hormones is being celebrated.
Recent research has illuminated the intricate dance of hormonal fluctuations, revealing their profound influence on every facet of our well-being, from our muscles’ strength to our minds’ agility.
It’s now well-established in research that female and male bodies age differently.
Women, for example, tend to outlive men by roughly six years, give or take. However, women tend to spend more years in poor health.
Women are also:
- More likely to experience muscle loss, sarcopenia, and frailty, leading to falls, fractures, and disability.
- Nearly twice as likely to be diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease.
- Less likely to fully recover and return to activities of daily living following a stroke.
