Alcohol use disorder (AUD) rates among women have surged, with women now drinking at levels comparable to men but facing significantly higher health risks. Researchers are investigating sex-based neurobiological differences that influence drinking motivations and the progression of alcohol-related harm. Current FDA-approved treatments for AUD are largely based on male-focused research and do not address sex-specific pathways.
