IntroductionResearch ObjectiveWhat is the correlation between gender and the frequency with which members of a specific gender seek health care? There has always been a different social classification based on gender. This arises from the way gender categorizes certain behaviors and attitudes as something women would be more likely to do than their male counterparts and vice versa. The objective of this research paper is to understand the impact of gender on the use of the health system. If no correlation is found between gender and health care seeking behaviors, then there is no relationship between the two. were interested in identifying correlations between women and men. And how these differences and similarities affect the likelihood of women and men seeking health care. Asiskovitch (2010) wishes to determine whether the availability of health care, when it differs from that of women and men, has an impact on the life expectancy of these individuals. “Longitudinal comparative data on life expectancy indicate a central societal division between men and women (on average, women live longer than men.) (Asiskovitch, 2010). Asiskovitch (2010) goes on to say that there are many different factors that play into life expectancy. of women and men, such as biology and genetics, health-related behaviors and lifestyles, and economic wealth.
