Yes, lipedema primarily affects women, with estimates suggesting that around 90% of those diagnosed are female. The condition is characterized by an abnormal accumulation of fat, usually in the legs and thighs, and is often associated with hormonal changes. While it can occur in men, it is much rarer and may be underdiagnosed in that population.
