Why Rickets is more frequent in female children?
-This is because they are either not allowed to play outdoors, or they have to cover their whole body even when allowed to go outside in certain communities .
-Also, there is preferential nurturing of the male child and the female child may be neglected in certain families.
-If it occurs in males then it is usually more severe (vitamin D-resistant rickets, Lowe's syndrome).
