Coronary Artery Disease Prevention: What's Different for Women?
Coronary artery disease has been widely considered a "man's
disease" and not a major concern for women. Yet cardiovascular
disease is the leading cause of death in adult women in the U.S.

2. ATHEALTH
Depression: What Every Woman Should Know
Depression is a pervasive and impairing illness that affects both women and men, but women experience depression at roughly twice the rate of men.

3. AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION
The Behavioral Health Care Needs of Rural Women
This report directs attention to the behavioral health care
needs of this underrepresented group.

4. NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH
Alcohol: A Women's Health Issue
Alcohol is yet another health issue for women. Drinking, even in small amounts, affects women differently than men. And heavy drinking, in some ways, is much more risky for women than it is for men.

5. ATHEALTH.COM
Why Step Relationships Aren't Easy
When two people remarry with one or both having children, they must double up their adjustment. They do not have the luxury of simply marrying as partners.
6. AMERICAN COLLEGE OF PREVENTIVE MEDICINE
Perimenopausal and Postmenopausal Hormone Replacement Therapy
Based on a review of current literature and recommendations, the
American College of Preventive Medicine presents a policy statement
on perimenopausal and postmenopausal replacement therapy.
7. NATIONAL INSTITUTE ON AGING
Caregiver Guide
Caring for a person with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) at home is a difficult task and can become overwhelming at times.

8. AMERICAN ACADEMY OF FAMILY PHYSICIANS
Health Screening in Older Women
Hearing and vision loss, dysmobility and functional impairment,
osteoporosis, cognitive impairment, depression, urinary incontinence
and domestic violence are major contributors to chronic disease
and disability in older women.
