About The Menopause Heart

The Menopause Heart is a free newsletter by Sameer Azhak, MD, FACC, written for women navigating cardiovascular health in their 40s and beyond. Its focus is the heart-health questions that arise during perimenopause, menopause, and the years that follow.

We explore blood pressure, cholesterol, hormones, sleep, nutrition, and cardiovascular risk in plain language. The aim is to help you understand the evidence and have more informed conversations with the clinicians who know your health history.
