  • Women and Stroke: Recovery, Prevention and Health Equity

    Women and Stroke: Recovery, Prevention and Health Equity
    Nov 10 2025
    Women and Stroke: Recovery, Prevention and Health Equity In this episode of "Stronger After Stroke," host Rosa Hart, BSN, R.N., SCRN, talks with Tamika Burrus, M.D., a stroke neurology specialist, about how stroke uniquely affects women. Together, they explore critical differences in how women respond to stroke treatments, such as thrombolytics (alteplase and tenecteplase) and mechanical thrombectomy, why recovery can look different for women, and what steps health care systems can take to close the gender gap in stroke outcomes. Dr. Burrus shares insights on physical, cognitive and emotional recovery challenges that women often face after stroke. The conversation also highlights disparities in stroke rehabilitation access, follow-up care and stroke prevention — particularly among Black and Hispanic women, who face a higher risk. Listeners will gain practical takeaways on how women can reduce their stroke risk through lifestyle changes, the importance of early screening by primary care and OB/GYN providers, and how health care professionals can improve outcomes through education, advocacy and equitable care. In this episode, you will learn: How estrogen impacts the cardiovascular systemThe unique physical, cognitive and emotional recovery challenges women face after strokeDisparities in access to rehabilitation and follow-up care for women compared with menLifestyle changes that can significantly reduce stroke risk for women at any ageHow racial and ethnic disparities affect stroke risk among Black and Hispanic womenThe role of primary care and OB/GYN providers in early stroke risk screeningCommon misconceptions about stroke in womenThe most important next steps for women recovering from strokeHow nurses and health care professionals can improve stroke outcomes and equity Key takeaway:Women experience stroke differently — biologically, socially and systemically.
