Studies have shown women experience worse hangovers, due to physiological factors such as lower body water content, higher body fat percentage, and less of the enzyme that breaks down alcohol, resulting in a higher alcohol concentration in their blood and prolonged effects.
1. Did you know research has found women feel the effects of alcohol sooner because they have much less of the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase in their stomachs, which breaks down alcohol before it enters the bloodstream. This means more alcohol, a toxin, enters the bloodstream unprocessed.

2. Did you know women generally have less total body water and a higher percentage of body fat compared to men. Since alcohol disperses in water, this means women achieve a higher alcohol concentration in their blood for the same amount of alcohol consumed.

3. Did you know after menopause, when estrogen levels drop, women may find they break down alcohol less efficiently, leading to greater susceptibility to hangovers than when they were younger.

4. Some common symptoms of hangovers include nausea with or without vomiting, tiredness or feeling weak, dizziness, throbbing headaches, dry mouth, and light sensitivity. Have you experience a hangover?
