WHAT? AZZNICA? A woman before and after menopause - two completelyDifferent people. At the end of the month, the amount of estrogen that protects the potential mother's body from sores sharply decreases. The heart begins to pee, the bones become brittle. But over the past couple of decades, the overall picture had to make adjustments. ? The spread of obesity, diabetes, smoking has led to the fact that heart disease in girls is significantly »younger».
? Thirteen doctors thought that on men it was not so withThe age is affected. But it turned out that they also have a kind of menopause. Andropause - an age-related decline in testosterone levels. Passing this border, once the model male experiences constant fatigue and irritability, he has an increased risk of developing heart disease.
WHAT WILL CHANGE? Doctors are trying hard to develop for both sexeshormone replacement therapy, which would have the least side effects. But the harder scientists are working hard to push as far as possible in your old age. This problem is not gender, and common to all mankind. While they can recommend us to a healthy lifestyle, proper diet and regular checkups.

WHAT? AZZNICA? Great! Female body works differently: a different metabolism, different ratios of sex hormones. The amount of fat and muscle mass is also different. Maiden's stomachs have less acidity and kidney men quickly filtered blood plasma. These characteristics affect the effectiveness and dosage of drugs. But women rarely conduct clinical trials, and not all the side effects known.
WHAT WILL CHANGE? Over time, some lines will appear in the instructions to drugs »men» and »women.» And maybe, and require additional refinement.
PAUL OR GENDER? ?

In 2014, a group of scientists under the guidanceDr. David Page from the Whitehead Institute in Cambridge announced a scientific sensation. It was believed that the second X chromosome in women and Y-chromosome in men only determine the sex of the child at conception, and then during life do not work. But Dr. Page discovered that 12 genes remain active in these chromosome-packed forever. They code regulatory proteins that affect which genes will be included in other chromosomes. In men and women they are different. The study of this suddenly announced dozen will accurately disclose some of the secrets of medicine. ? Asks about both cancer and the immune system. Maybe even about why women are more likely to be affected by Alzheimer's.
Until now, the problem was to distinguish betweenimpact on the health of biological sex and social role of »girl» or »boy.» But biological sex, meanwhile, is also not a monolith. There are genes, hormones, body structure. The last two items can now be changed at will. How sick transgender? How to act on them medication? What to do with those who have chromosomal sex anatomy and are not the same from birth? It is rare, but this also happens.
A lot of questions. As people nor Delhi - by sex, gender, age, race or body weight, they do not fit in the specified frame. And gender medicine - it does not attempt to display the graph of the average man or woman, then to treat them well-established pattern. It's only path leading to personalized medicine, which treats the patient and not the disease.
