Did you know that your pregnancy history can be a crucial window into your long-term heart health? 🤰

The Blackrock Health ‘Her Health’ podcast sees Dr. Caoimhe Hartley and Consultant Cardiologist Dr. Sorcha Allen sit down to discuss why pregnancy is often the ultimate "stress test" for a woman's cardiovascular system.

Complications like preeclampsia, gestational diabetes or delivering a baby before 37 weeks can be early red flags for heart health down the road.

When seeing patients who have had children, asking about these pregnancy complications is a key first step for healthcare experts to identify potential red flags early.

It is never too late to learn about your body and to protect your heart health ❤️
