(Red for Heart Disease)
Even though heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women, women often chalk up the symptoms to less life-threatening conditions like acid reflux, the flu or normal aging.
A heart attack strikes someone about every 34 seconds. It occurs when the blood flow that brings oxygen to the heart muscle is severely reduced or cut off completely. This happens because the arteries that supply the heart with blood can slowly become thicker and harder from a buildup of fat, cholestrol and other substances (plaque).
Heart Attack Signs in Women
Uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain in the center of your chest. It lasts more than a few minutes, or goes away and comes back.
(White for Hiv)
The number of women living with HIV/AIDS in the United States has increased significantly since the beginning of the epidemic. At the end of 2000, adult and adolescent women accounted for 17 percent, or 134,441, of the cumulative AIDS cases in the United States. There were 10,568 new AIDS cases diagnosed among women in 2000, and a total of 67,993 women living with AIDS. At the end of 2000, 66,448 women had died from AIDS in the U.S. Thirty-nine percent of AIDS cases among adolescent and adult women are the result of unprotected heterosexual sex. An additional 39 percent of AIDS cases among women are attributed to injection drug use.
Risk Factors
Women are more than twice as likely as men to contract HIV through unprotected heterosexual sex. HIV is transmitted eight times more efficiently from men to women than from women to men. Biologically, women have a much larger area of skin and tissue that is exposed to their partner's secretions during sex than men. Additionally, HIV-infected semen has a higher concentration of the virus than vaginal secretions.
What are the symptoms of HIV/AIDS in women?
Many people have no symptoms when they first become infected with HIV. Some people may have a flu-like illness (including fever, headache, tiredness and enlarged lymph nodes) within a month or two after exposure to the virus. These symptoms usually disappear within a week to a month and are often mistaken for those of another viral infection.
More severe symptoms may not appear for 10 years or more. Even during the asymptomatic period, the virus is active inside a person’s body and can be passed to another person.
As the immune system worsens, a variety of complications start to occur. For many people, the first signs of infection are large lymph nodes or “swollen glands” that may be enlarged for more than three months. Other symptoms often experienced months to years before the onset of AIDS include:
(Pink for Breast cancer)
What is Breast Cancer?
Breast cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in the tissues of the breast. It is considered a heterogeneous disease—differing by individual, age group, and even the kinds of cells within the tumors themselves. Obviously no woman wants to receive this diagnosis, but hearing the words “breast cancer” doesn’t always mean an end. It can be the beginning of learning how to fight, getting the facts, and finding hope.
Women in the United States get breast cancer more than any other type of cancer except for skin cancer. It is second only to lung cancer as a cause of cancer death in women.
Each year it is estimated that nearly 200,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer and more than 40,000 will die. Approximately 1,700 men will also be diagnosed with breast cancer and 450 will die each year. The evaluation of men with breast masses is similar to that in women, including mammography.
An Early Detection Plan enables you to be proactive about your health by reminding you to perform routine breast self-exams and to schedule clinical breast exams and mammograms, depending on your age and health history. Through the National Breast Cancer Foundation’s Early Detection Plan, you can select the reminder options that work best for you, including email alerts, calendar reminders, text messages or downloading a PDF of your plan.

Heart Attack Signs in Women
Uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain in the center of your chest. It lasts more than a few minutes, or goes away and comes back.
- Pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or stomach.
- Shortness of breath with or without chest discomfort.
- Other signs such as breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or lightheadedness.
- As with men, women’s most common heart attack symptom is chest pain or discomfort. But women are somewhat more likely than men to experience some of the other common symptoms, particularly shortness of breath, nausea/vomiting and back or jaw pain.

- weight loss
- frequent low-grade fevers and night sweats
- frequent yeast infections (in the mouth)
- skin rashes or flaky skin that is hard to heal
- short-term memory loss
- vaginal yeast infections
- other vaginal infections such as bacterial vaginosis; common sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) like gonorrhea, Chlamydia and trichomoniasis; human papillomavirus (HPV) infections that cause genital warts and can lead to cervical cancer; pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)
- infection of a women's reproductive organs and menstrual cycle changes, such as not having period

Common signs & symptoms of breast cancer include:
- A change in how the breast or nipple feels
You may experience nipple tenderness or notice a lump or thickening in or near the breast or in the underarm area. - A change in how the breast or nipple looks
This could mean a change in the size or shape of the breast or a nipple that is turned slightly inward. In addition, the skin of the breast, areola or nipple may appear scaly, red or swollen or may have ridges or pitting that resembles the skin of an orange. - Nipple discharge
