No previous studies have investigated the association between common female sex-specific health conditions, such as oligo/amenorrhea, hyperandrogenism and PCOS, and hs-TnT levels. Only one prior study has investigated the association between menopause and hs-TnT levels.Hs-TnT levels were significantly higher in women with oligo/amenorrhea and relatively early menopause at age 46 than women without these conditions, whereas women with hyperandrogenism or PCOS and their controls have comparable hs-TnT levels.The effect of oligo/amenorrhea on cardiovascular health should be further investigated. A simple question about the presence of oligo/amenorrhea might identify women at increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
