Brief summary
The alcohol consumption of adults has been decreasing in France since the sixties. When focusing on the particular case of women, this trend goes on the opposite direction. In addition, the impact of drinking alcohol involves an increased severity in women in comparison to men. Furthermore, women consult less often doctors about their alcohol problem due to stigmatisation. Finally, as alcohol consumption is a major public health issue (second preventable cause of death), the aim of this study is to propose an earlier screening of women with alcohol use disorders (AUD) in general medicine.
