Abstract: The present empirical review focuses on the gender differences of alcohol consumption and the course of alcohol related outcomes. As epidemiological findings indicate alcohol use and abuse is much higher in males than females. However, there is a “paradox”, women start consuming alcohol much later in life and develop faster adverse alcohol related outcomes than men. Several research findings support this tendency for general pathology and also for brain structure alterations. The purpose of the present study is to give an insight about the course and the outcome of alcohol abuse between genders, by presenting empirical research findings of earlier research (1980s-1990s), and more up to date research (2000s), with the main focus the brain morphological alterations.
