Summary
Women have increased health care requirements in comparison to men during their lifetime, there are indications throughout the world that all health and social care needs are not always met. It is believed that women suffer more compared to men and this may be in the form of acute transient illnesses, chronic health conditions, and serious functional disabilities. Both men and women may experience stress, this may be felt differently by women in general and there might be geographical variations as well. Women live longer than men and may experience more acute transient illnesses, chronic health conditions, and serious functional disabilities when compared to men [2] Men and women both experience stress in life but its physical and psychological effects on mind and body may differ. The other forms of mental illnesses women suffer more than men include post-traumatic stress disorder, panic attacks and obsessive-compulsive disorder [6]
