Sex differences in the experience of pain in the UK Biobank cohort study
A significant strength of our study is the large sample size, and the high detail of information captured about pain phenotypes, in which we found sex differences in chronic pain persist. We recommend future pain surveys collect sex-based pain conditions to enable better recognition of why sex differences in pain persist.
