The Objective of the Women's Health Initiative is to provide community education to addressing the following issues:

  •   Become your own health advocate where heart disease is concerned
  •   How to recognize and what to do about heart symptoms
  •   Questions to ask their physicians and how to become more proactive in describing their symptoms and heart history
  •   More information on ways of reducing their risk factors
  •   Access to new information about existing diagnostic techniques and how they work in women
  •   Physicians need to provide information and offer non-invasive testing options for the prevention, detection and treatment of heart disease in women
