Learn About Heart Attacks
How to spot the signs of a heart attack in both women and men.
Heart Attack Signs in Females
It’s important for women to understand they are just as likely as men to have heart attacks — and their symptoms may be different. Women are less likely than men to believe they are having a heart attack. And women are also more likely to delay seeking emergency treatment.
Here are possible signs of a heart attack in women:
- Chest discomfort (which may feel like uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain)
- Cold sweat
- Lightheadedness
- Nausea
- Pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or stomach
- Shortness of breath with or without chest discomfort
Women, diabetic patients and the elderly may present with unusual heart attack symptoms, such as:
- Change in breathing
- Nausea
- Unexplained sweating
- Vague, unusual sensation in the chest, arms, teeth, neck or back
Remember: "When in doubt, check it out." If you think you might be having a heart attack, call 911.
Heart Attack Signs in Males
Here are common signs of a heart attack in men:
- Chest pressure
- Cold sweat
- Discomfort in the back, jaw or stomach
- Lightheadedness
- Nausea
- Neck or arm pain
- Shortness of breath
- Sweating
Remember: "When in doubt, check it out." If you think you might be having a heart attack, call 911.
