Estrogen stimulates nitric oxide production, enhancing endothelial function and vasodilation, and inhibits smooth muscle cell proliferation, reducing plaque formation in arteries.
Estrogen enhances endothelial nitric oxide production, which improves vasodilation and blood flow, reducing atherosclerosis risk in premenopausal women.
