(The North American Menopause Society (NAMS)) CLEVELAND, Ohio (Sept. 9, 2020)--Early menarche has been associated with many cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, but little is known about its association with overall heart health.

Study results are published online today in Menopause, the journal of The North American Menopause Society (NAMS).
