Women are different from men this is a known aspect, but how are women different in terms of perceiving pain is a very important topic of research. The women are very prone towards emotional aspects of things. In research about similar illness in men and women and their perception of pain, it is seen that women report more pain than women. One reason can definitely be that there are more pain receptors in women and there are less pain receptors in men. The pain receptors act as a way in which different pain sensations have different receptors.
