According to Dr. Jeanetta Frye, women experience digestive issues more intensely due to greater visceral hypersensitivity, resulting in a significant gender gap in digestive disorders.
Irritable bowel syndrome is two to six times more prevalent among women than men, highlighting a stark difference in gastrointestinal health between genders.
Celiac disease is diagnosed nearly twice as often in women as men, indicating that several digestive disorders disproportionately affect female patients.
Dr. David Levinthal points out that disorders of gut-brain interaction and motility disorders are also significantly more prevalent in women, expanding the understanding of gender disparities.
