Everyone in this world is going to go through puberty. You know puberty, right? Puberty is the process of transitioning a person from children to adults. During puberty or this transition, a lot of changes will occur in a person's body, be it a girl or a boy. For women themselves, of course there are many signs of physical maturity that will be experienced by women, including those experienced. Several things that will be experienced by women during puberty, including the appearance of acne, changes in body shape, hair growth in certain areas, and of course menstruation.
Every woman has a different time when menstruating. There are women who have had menstruation since elementary school, but there are even women who have had their first menstrual period when they were in high school. But it turns out that the age at first menstruation has something to do with heart health. The early period of menstruation does have an influence on the risk of heart attack, stroke, and heart failure in the future.
On average, women have their first period at age 12. Women who menstruate one year earlier than the average age have a higher risk of developing heart disease. In fact, women who menstruate at the age of 10 years or younger have a much greater risk of heart disease such as heart attack, stroke, heart failure and death, which is 4 times higher.
Women who menstruated before or after the mean age (12 years) had a higher risk of developing heart disease, when compared to women who had menstruation at an average age (12 years).
