As a result, there are important differences between women and men, such as susceptibility, detection and most effective treatment. This affects particular health issues such as cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, peri-menopausal issues, gynecological issues (such as STDs and fertility concerns), oncology, disorders involving the endocrine and autoimmune systems (eg. diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis), psychological and neurological disorders (eg. depression, anxiety and migraines), \u00a0fertility, contraception and nutrition.
