The Risk Factor Nobody's Talking About: Menopause, Estrogen, and the Heart Disease Epidemic in Women

Cardiologist Dr. Jayne Morgan has a message that cuts through the noise: menopause is not a gynecological footnote. It's a cardiovascular inflection point — and most women don't find out until it's too late.In this episode, Dr. Morgan and Stacy cover the full arc of women's cardiovascular health: why complicated pregnancies are early warning signs, what happens to blood pressure at age 51, how every perimenopausal symptom signals estrogen loss and rising cardiac risk, and why perimenopause is actually your best window to intervene. They also discuss the racial disparity in symptom severity, the limits and promises of AI in women's health, and why the case for estrogen doesn't require the studies we don't have. Dr. Jayne Morgan is a Cardiologist and Vice President of Medical Affairs at Hello Heart, specializing in women’s health, particularly AI and digital heart health technology, and cardiovascular research.
