What is Gender Medicine?

Gender Medicine (GM), also known as gender-specific medicine, addresses the biological and socio-cultural differences inherent to each individual and their impact on health and disease.

 

This innovative perspective holds great significance for National Health Services, marking a substantial cultural shift in patient care and presenting a new frontier in medical knowledge.
