Female patients with HCM showed significant age-related impairment in functional capacity compared with males, particularly evident in post-menopausal age groups. While women were at greater risk of HCM-related complications and death, impaired exercise capacity predicted adverse outcome only in men. These findings suggest the need for sex-specific management strategies in HCM.

Abstract
Female patients with HCM showed significant age-related impairment in functional capacity compared with males, particularly evident in post-menopausal age groups. While women were at greater risk of HCM-related complications and death, impaired exercise capacity predicted adverse outcome only in men. These findings suggest the need for sex-specific management strategies in HCM.
