The chart shows that less than 6% of heart attacks occur in people aged 29-44, with very few (3000) occurring in women of that age range compared to men (123,000). However, between ages 45-64, over half a million heart attacks occur yearly, with over 420,000 in men. In that age group, women experience one heart attack for every three men. After age 65, heart attacks increase significantly for women, who make up over 40% of all victims, while the number only slightly increases for men. In conclusion, men are more likely to suffer heart attacks at all ages, but the likelihood increases more for women after age 65.

The frequency of heart attacks in the US.
The chart shows how age and gender influence the frequency of heart attacks in the US.
Less than 6% of all heart attacks occur in the 29-44 age group. The number of women
who suffer heart attacks in this group is negligible – only 3000 per year, compared to
123,000 men.
However the proportion of men and women with heart attacks rises
dramatically between 45 and 64, with over half a million per year. Over 420,000 men a
year in this age group have heart attacks. The incidence amongst women increases –
women have one heart attack for every three men in this age group. Over the age of 65,
the number of men suffering heart attacks only increases slightly. However there is
a huge increase in the number of women with heart attacks – they comprise over 40%
of all victims.
In conclusion, men are more likely to be the victims of heart attacks at all ages, but
women are increasingly likely over the age of 65.
