Hi gopal
Welcome to HealthcareMagic.
It is unlikely for some of her age to have a heart attack. But in people with the cholesterol diseases the chances of heart disease increase.
There could be a heart attack at the age of 24 due to diseases like HOCM.
.If you Have any symptoms of heart attack , barring age you should get tested for the evaluation of heart disease.
Hope this information is useful to you and others.and
Take care
