A member asked:
Are women diagnosed with personality disorders more than men?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: To qualify this answer I am answering the specific question being asked. Should women be diagnosed with personality disorders more frequently, probably not. There are certain types of disorders that are more common in women, such as borderline personality disorder, but there are also disorders that appear to be more common in men such as antisocial personality disorder.
