Many musculoskeletal conditions are impacted by the chromosomal sex of the patient. While osteoarthritis (OA) is predominant in men younger than 50 years of age, after age 50 the condition is more prevalent in women, particularly post-menopause. This has implications for diagnosis and treatment of OA, as well as for joint replacement.
