Abstract:
Introduction: Primary headaches, especially migraine and tension-type headache (TTE), are of great interest to neurologists and general practitioners due to the high frequency of occurrence, not always clear clinical signs, and difficulties in diagnosis. We all know that headaches are common among women. Of course, this difference has been explained by many scientific studies with hormonal changes. However, the specific gender characteristics of the female and male organism are often not taken into account. In the scientific literature, the terms “sex” and “gender” are used to indicate the difference between men and women, and the two terms are often used interchangeably. According to the authorities given in the literature, each of these two terms is a separate concept.
The purpose of the scientific work: to determine the gender identity among patients suffering from migraine and tensiontype headache.
