This review discusses actual scientific results on cardiovascular risk factors, such as sex hormones, age at menopause, dyslipidemia, sympathicotony, body weight and obesity, etc., in postmenopausal women. Some aspects of assessment of cardiovascular risk in women, according with guidelines of American Heart Association (2011), were discussed also. Key points of preventive interventions were highlighted

В обзоре обсуждаются накопленные к настоящему времени научные данные об особенностях факторов сердечно-сосудистого риска у женщин в постменопаузе, таких как уровень половых гормонов, возраст наступления менопаузы, дислипидемия, повышенная масса тела и ожирение, симпатикотония и др. Также кратко обсуждаются некоторые аспекты оценки сердечно-сосудистого риска у женщин в свете клинических рекомендаций American Heart Association (2011) и приводятся ключевые положения относительно его коррекции.
