Women's Health Matters

Women's Health Matters: The Influence of Gender on Disease examines how sex and gender shape disease risk, symptom presentation and clinical outcomes. It brings together clinical and public-health perspectives to clarify the biological and social factors that affect detection, treatment and long-term care.

Topics span sex-specific epidemiology, variations in symptoms and diagnostic challenges, differences in treatment response, and the implications of gendered access to care. The text aims to translate research findings into practical considerations for diagnosis, management and health policy.

Ideal for clinicians, public-health students and informed readers, the book provides a structured overview to support gender-aware approaches in research, education and clinical practice.
