    SUMMARY

    Women and men can have the same illnesses, but with different prevalence and reactions to symptoms.

    OBJECTIVE:  This study aimed to emphasize that distinct traits between men and women require a different approach for each of them.

    METHODS:  PubMed and Google Scholar were searched using the following terms: Disability Evaluations, Women's health, Osteoporosis, Osteoarthritis, and Lymphedema, Pregnancy.

    RESULTS/CONCLUSION:  Disease management can go beyond the symptoms, assessing the long-term consequences and possibly the disabilities they can generate, compromising the quality of life of the person, his/her family members, and eventually caregivers.

    KEYWORDS:
    Disability evaluations; Women's health; Osteoporosis; Osteoarthritis; Lymphedema; Pregnancy
