Atherosclerosis is a gradual process that can begin in childhood and may take decades to develop significantly. Factors such as genetics, diet, lifestyle, and overall health influence the rate of progression. In some individuals, it can progress rapidly due to risk factors like high cholesterol, smoking, and hypertension, while in others, it may develop slowly and asymptomatically over many years. Regular monitoring and lifestyle changes can help slow its progression.
