Alternating risk of thrombosis for women

Alternating risk of thrombosis for women

Viennese physicians report that women with diabetes are particularly at risk of venous occlusion due to blood clots. The risk is highest during menopause. During that time, these patients “should be monitored more carefully for the development of venous thromboembolism,” the researchers explain. The study was published in the journal Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice.

“The effect is greatest in women between the ages of 50 and 59, where the risk is 1.65 times higher.” In men, diabetes would also increase the risk of thrombosis, but “only” by a factor of 1.3.
