Are liver diseases in women going undiagnosed too often?

Dr Akash Chaudhary, Clinical Director & Senior Consultant Medical Gastroenterologist at CARE Hospitals, Hyderabad, says liver disease in women is often missed due to subtle signs like fatigue and nausea. Hormonal changes, pregnancy, PCOS, and menopause raise risks. Women are also more sensitive to alcohol and drugs, making early diagnosis and regular screening essential.
