Core Tip Our review critically examines an understudied interplay- menopause, coronary artery calcium score (CACS), and cardiovascular disease (CVD), highlighting estrogen withdrawal’s role in accelerating subclinical atherosclerosis. It analyzes current evidence on the role of metabolic dysregulation, bone mineral density, lipid shifts, insulin resistance, and triglyceride-glucose index as mediators of increased CACS. Given the rising global burden of CVD in aging female populations and the growing use of CACS, this review is especially timely in guiding risk assessment during the menopausal transition. Future research should focus on integrating CACS to traditional risk assessment tools for early CVD detection and prevention.
