Yvette Brazier from Medical News Today reports that a new study found out that women have a better memory function compared to men.

Lizette Borreli from Medical Daily explains that we’ve known for some time that men can be forgetful especially in remembering important occasions like birthdays and anniversaries. Females are especially detailed when it comes to these things.

Well, findings from the journal Menopause strongly indicate that there’s a scientific explanation behind these differences. The North American Menopause Society (NAMS) conducted the study’s tests and it involved a total of 212 men and women between the ages of 45-55. The tests include clinical and cognitive examinations as well as hormonal assessments of those who are under menopause.

The study gives us an overview about the areas that are affected. It’s true that the results show learning and info retrieval abilities decreased but the scientists found as well that memory storage and consolidation still remained in postmenopausal females.

It’s Official: Women DO Have Better Memories Than Men (In Middle Age, At Least)

From forgetfulness to ‘brain fog,’ women are often plagued by memory-related problems during menopause – but despite the many obstacles, they still have a better memory than men. Read more…

No matter how much we enumerate the differences in gender, it is important to take note that lifestyle and the environment are factors that we can modify in order to help achieve an overall wellness.
