Heredity? We don't know. Probably tendencies. I have PV and not RA. I don't even have osteo-Arthritis.
There is evidence linking Both oseteo and rheumatoid arthritis with genetic predisposition. In other words there seems to be a predisposition to these diseases among family members.
OSteo and rheumatoid arthritiswhile both destructive to joints are completely different diseases.
most forms of arthritis are chronic, this is particularly so in the case of inflammatory forms of arthritis like for example rheumatoid arthritis which is an autoimmune disease
This would refer to the type of arthritis that tends to affect the same joints on both sides of the body at the same time, there is a symmetry to the way it flares and is generally Rheumatoid arthritis.
A plant known as feverfew is used for both RA and headache however it has not been clinically proved to effective in arthritis

Testosterone hormone that is found in both men and women is responsible for it, but women later gets low into it because of pregnancy and mensuration cycle. There are evidences that people who are low in testosterone hormone are more prone to rheumatoid arthritis.So, this is the only genetic factor which is responsible for high rate of rheumatoid arthritis in women.
there are over a hundred different forms of arthritis effecting both the joints and other parts of the body. It seems that gouty arthritis has been described as the most painful, however Rheumatoid arthritis is reputed to be the most crippling form of arthritis on average.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a particular form of arthritis. It happens in the joints on both sides of the body, for instance both wrists or both knees. Symptoms include joint pain and swelling, stiffness and fatigue. Its onset doesn’t follow one strict pattern. Some people will have rheumatoid arthritis come along rapidly and for others it will be a very slow progression. Rheumatoid arthritis can also go into spontaneous remission. Approximately one percent of the U.S. population has rheumatoid arthritis. It usually occurs in middle age, but can occur in children and the elderly also. Women are twice as likely to get it as men. However, when men do get this disease, they usually will have more severe symptoms. No one knows the exact cause of this type of arthritis, but some research suggests a combination of genetic, environmental and hormonal factors. It seems that something triggers the immune system to attack the joints and even in some cases the organs, such as the lungs or the heart. Here’s what happens when you have rheumatoid arthritis. Immune cells move through the blood to the joints and produce inflammatory substances. This causes inflammation, irritation and wearing down of the cartilage. Since the cartilage fills the space between the bones, as it disappears, the space shrinks and the bones can actually rub against each other. All of this causes the joints to become very painful and swollen. There are a few different ways to detect rheumatoid arthritis, but the most deciding factor is a blood test that shows the rheumatoid factor antibody. This, combined with the presence of bumps and nodules under the skin and swollen, painful joints will lead to a positive diagnosis. The treatment for rheumatoid arthritis depends upon the person’s age, overall health, medical history and the severity of the arthritis. There are many different treatments including medication, rest and exercise. Usually, a patient will be treated with medicine, but will also need to rest when the joint is inflamed and exercise to improve the condition of the joint. In severe cases, surgery may be necessary to restore function to the damaged joint. There is no cure for rheumatoid arthritis, but the above treatments can prevent it from becoming debilitating.
