Freshman in High School: 3rd notch for 110m and 300m Sophmore/Junior/Senior in High School: 4th notch for 110m and 3rd notch for 300m College/Professional: 5th notch for 110m and 4th notch for 400m hurdles.
In the Womens' 100 Meter Hurdle Race and the Men's 110 Meter Hurdle Race, there are 10 hurdles. In the 300 Meter Hurdle Run, there are 8 hurdles. In the 400 Meter Hurdle Run, there are 10 hurdles.
Because the hurdles for men are set at different distances from the starting line than for women. For example: The mens hurdles start at the blue line, so the womens would start about 2 inches away at the yellow line. Additionally, elite men's stride length would not allow them to hurdle at the distance that womens hurdles are set at; it's simply too short.

There are exactly 10 hurdles in the 100m women's! roughly 8 steps to the first hurdle from the starting point, and 3-5 steps in between each hurdle, depending on if you're in junior varsity or varsity (from a high school POV)
Men don't run the 100 meter hurdles in world class competition, they run the 110 meter hurdles. The world record for the 110 meter hurdles is 12.87 seconds set by Dayron Robles of Cuba in 2008.newtest3
Ten. The first hurdle is 45 meters from the start. The following nine hurdles are evenly spaced, 35 meters apart, and there is 40 meters from the last hurdle to the finish line.
It depends how well they are able to adjust to the height difference, if they're taller, it will be easier. I have seen times range from 2 seconds slower to 1 second faster when transitioning to college height.
The distance is 110m rather than 100m because they wanted men to be able to run it whilst fitting 3 steps in-between the hurdles without changing the number of hurdles in the race from 10. 10 hurdles in the race is consistent with all the hurdle events, so they increased the distance to make the men's race more fluid, as mens' strides are typically longer than womens'.

There are actually 3 track & field events in which they are either different, or unavailable for women to participate. These are: 1) Mens 110 m hurdles, whereas women participate in 100 m hurdles. 2) Mens 50 Km walk, no such event exists for women. 3) Mens Decathlon, whereas women participate in a Heptathlon. I went to the International Olympic Committee's website and searched for field events to find this answer. Hope this helps.
