There is a significant difference between men and women in relation to coronary artery disease. Women's symptoms differ from those seen in men. The most common initial symptom in women is angina, but atypical symptoms of fatigue, indigestion, vasospasm, shortness of breath, or back or jaw pain are also present. The remaining options are reflective of symptoms experienced by both men and women.
