The actual statistics are impossible to identify, but different illnesses appear to be more prominent in males than in females and vise-versa. For example: Schizophrenia appears to be more dominant in males than in females during early life, but then switches during puberty and switches again during adulthood and so on; OCD appears to be equal in which gender is prominent; and Autism-Spectrum Disorders appear to be more prominent in males.
It is best to identify a specific illness and find the gender prevalence rates within that illness as each illness is different and has different traits which may only appear in males and some which may only appear in females, with some being prominent in males and some in females.
