What was said
"Women who have more severe hot flashes and more frequent hot flashes, sometimes it is a marker for impending cardiac issues."
Board-certified OB-GYN Dr Sharon Malone says frequent or severe hot flashes in menopause can, in some cases, be a marker for future heart problems. She links vasomotor symptoms to disrupted sleep and downstream risks such as hypertension and type 2 diabetes, arguing symptoms should not be dismissed as merely discomfort.
