Asma na mulher

Abstract

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of high prevalence and high morbidity if left untreated. Some differences are noted between men and women, particularly in disease manifestation, but diagnosis and treatment did not differ between genders. Some peculiarities of asthma in women will be discussed in this review, as well as the treatment of pregnant women with asthma. © Copyright Moreira Jr. Editora.
