HCPlive (1/25, Derman) reported, “A new study found women experience more severe early PTSD symptoms than men, with re-experiencing and avoidance symptoms identified as the strongest and most interconnected symptom clusters.” The researchers said their “findings underscore the importance of understanding both gender similarities and possible differences in the development of early PTSD symptoms.” The investigators added, “Such understanding may provide valuable insights into the mechanisms driving later development of PTSD.” The findings were published in the European Journal of Psychotraumatology.
