Maybe: Women's vitamin formulations tend to have more iron than men's formulations and men need to limit extra iron. Otherwise, there isno real difference. Better yet, skip the vitamins altogether and get them naturally from whole foods like fruits, vegetables, nuts, beans, and whole grains, plus sunshine and wild fatty fish like salmon.
