New study suggests sex hormones explain higher opioid misuse and deaths among men.
New research from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis indicates that sex hormones may explain higher opioid misuse and deaths among men.
The study found that male rats with chronic pain increased their fentanyl intake, while female rats with the same condition maintained a steady intake.
Male rats treated with estrogen showed similar stable intake, suggesting that sex hormones influence opioid use.
This could lead to new strategies in tackling the opioid epidemic.
