Yes, men can have fibromyalgia, although it is more commonly diagnosed in women. The condition affects individuals regardless of gender and is characterized by widespread pain, fatigue, and other symptoms. While research suggests that women may be at higher risk, men can experience fibromyalgia and may face unique challenges in diagnosis and treatment. Awareness and understanding of the condition in men are important for effective management.
