An American study revealed that the symptoms of heart attacks in women are different from those in men. These include sweating, dizziness, and nausea, and they often occur while sleeping or resting.

Women must be aware of these symptoms of their own, while working to reduce the chances of heart disease, a doctor at the Mayo Clinic says. There are other factors that women must pay attention to, such as diabetes, psychological stress, smoking, and the nature of a sedentary life, he adds.
