Core Tip	Gender differences play an important role in liver diseases, their evolution and outcome, and in liver transplantation, not only in terms of access to this resource, but also in terms of graft survival, metabolic aspects, and quality of life after liver transplantation. Not only gender differences, are important, however, but clearly the different hormonal status throughout a woman’s lifetime determines many aspects not only regarding fertility and sexual issues such as pregnancy, but also metabolic complications. Notwithstanding this, decision-making algorithms regarding indications, risk factors, and outcomes after transplant do not yet incorporate many of these concepts that affect the clinical practice.
