| Core Tip |
Sex influences the epidemiology, progression, and treatment outcomes of chronic hepatitis C. Women exhibit lower body mass index, less genotype 3 infection, and fewer hepatitis B virus/human immunodeficiency virus coinfections compared to men. They have slower liver fibrosis progression and achieve higher sustained virologic response rates with direct-acting antivirals. However, postmenopausal women report more treatment-related adverse events. Recognizing these sex- and reproductive status-related differences is crucial to optimize personalized management and improve therapeutic outcomes in chronic hepatitis C patients. |
