Women with stressful jobs are more likely to have heart attacks.
 
A new study from Harvard Medical School analyzed surveys filled out by more than 20,000 professional women.

Researchers followed the participants for 10 years.

They found women with the most job-related stress were nearly 70 percent more likely to suffer a heart attack, and 40 percent more likely to have some sort of cardiovascular event.
 
Experts say a stressful job takes a toll on a woman's psychological health, which is closely related to her physical health.
