What Are the 5 Warning Signs of a Stroke in a Woman ?

Men are more likely to have a stroke, but women have a higher lifetime risk. Women are also more likely to die of stroke.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that one in five American women will have a stroke and nearly 60% will die from the stroke. Stroke is the third leading cause of death for American women.

There are many reasons why women are more prone to stroke.
Women live longer than men, and age is also an important risk factor for stroke. You are more likely to have high blood pressure. Pregnancy and birth control also increase the risk of stroke in women.

The more you know about the symptoms of stroke in women, the easier it is to get help. Prompt treatment can mean the difference between disability and recovery.

If the 5 symptoms doesn’t cause a stroke, her voice and that music certainly will.

[Kar]

This video raises my heart rate and my blood pressure. It’s the music and her way of talking .

[Paugie]

This would be a good video but the music is to loud and the lady yelling is to much!😊

[debra]

I am going to have a stroke from your speedy fast talking omg

[tabsanderson]

background music is too loud and voice of narrator is too hyper and not mellow

[mmg]

It would be very helpful if the music was at a lower volume than the spoken words. The music is way too loud and dramatic here.

Get rid of the background music. . .it’s loud and very distracting.

[nataliemeenakshithegreat]

The narrator is going to give me a stroke with her voice damn

[debwilson]

I barely made it through the first minute because of the music. Would have loved to hear a professional, no hype presentation on such an important topic.

[jenny-rofo]

Wow, just listening to this causes me to have anxiety!

[beverlyfrancis]

I've had all those symptoms in the last 2 year's. Thank God, no stroke yet. THANK YOU LADY.

[debishaw]

Why the music? It’s about to give me a stroke

[happyapple]

I didn’t have any of those signs, mine were driving home from work all of a sudden the car started veering to the right, by the grace of God I was able to pull over and just stop. Later on that evening I just started throwing up for no reason just clear water and later on while asleep I tried to open my eyes and they were moving 100 miles per hour in my head, I was so glad my son stayed over that night and he said mom we need to go to the ER asap. I was diagnosed to have had 5 or more mini strokes stayed in hospital for a week. Just saying there are so many warning signs we just got to know when something doesn’t feel right, it’s time to get to the hospital, ASAP.

[lisaurquhart]

Between the music and her rapid fire delivery, I can feel my heart start to race! Too bad 😮

[anitawhite]

I AGREE! THE BACKGROUND MUSIC SUCKS. ITS TO LOUD THAT I CAN HADLEY HEAR THE LADY TALK!

[agnesray]

Yes, the speaker need to speak calmer

[xiaoneewoo]

I got a stroke when I was 54. I had dizziness for years and my bad cholesterol so high. I didn’t pay an attention. Suddenly, one day I couldn’t figure out what the day was today. Then I went to hospital for three days.

[sinthyas]

This video is very much disturbing especially the background music, my heart pumped so fast pls while uploading these kind of videos should be informative rather then disturbens

[maxinewaller]

And quit saying the same thing over and over!
