Gender-Sensitive Pain Management

Gender-sensitive pain management recognizes that men and women may experience, perceive, and respond to pain differently due to biological, hormonal, and social factors. It involves tailoring assessment and treatment approaches to account for these differences, ensuring both genders receive effective and equitable care. This approach helps address biases, improves pain relief, and enhances overall patient outcomes by considering individual experiences and needs related to gender.
