Cracking the Mystery: Exploring Why Women Live Longer Despite Health Challenges.
As per the report from a foreign news agency, diseases pose a common challenge for both men and women. However, research findings unveil a paradox: despite encountering health issues, women tend to live longer than men. Interestingly, men often face a higher prevalence of deadly diseases compared to women.
Research published in the renowned journal Public Health General Lancet indicates that both men and women experience the impacts of disease individually. However, despite facing health challenges, women tend to outlive men.
Conversely, diseases that afflict men tend to be more fatal, posing significant threats to their longevity.
Researchers from the University of Washington and the University of California conducted a comprehensive global health analysis spanning almost three decades. This extensive study scrutinized the 20 primary causes of disease worldwide.
The analysis unveiled distinct disparities in how diseases impact individuals of different sexes, with surprising variations emerging even before puberty.
Over a span of 30 years, this global analysis identified that ailments such as back pain, depression, and dementia tend to result in longer periods of disability for women. Conversely, men face a higher likelihood of premature mortality from conditions such as heart disease, lung cancer, and kidney disease.
According to the findings of this study, women grappling with conditions like lower back pain tend to endure more years of compromised health. On average, approximately 1.3 percent of women experience a longevity advantage of 0.79 percent over men.
