As issued by the authors
Physiologic changes in sex hormones define clinically distinct life stages (ie, perimenarche, ovarian cycling, perimenopause, postmenopause), which directly inform female-specific considerations for screening, prevention, and management of cardiovascular disease.
This presidential advisory details the framework and its scientific rationale, highlights opportunities for implementation across settings, and identifies priorities for research, clinician education, patient advocacy, and policy.
