Women: You’re at higher risk of a broken heart

No, we are not referring to Rixton with his broken heart, even if it is sounds like a popular pop song, your heart can actually break. A call from a close relative about someone who has died in your family could put you a lot of pressure and stress on your heart.

Basically, when you’re under too much stress, stress hormones interrupt the heart’s normal rhythm in one particular part of the muscle. Fortunately, it’s rarely fatal, though the symptoms of chest pain and shortness of breath can feel like a heart attack.

However, more than 90 percent of reported cases of broken heart syndrome happen in women between the ages of 58 and 70, reports Harvard Health. See your doctor if you experience any of these symptoms, especially when you’re going through a tough time.
