Why Autism in Girls Is Often Missed | The Pediatrician Next Door - Simple Advice on Parenting...

Why do so many more boys get diagnosed with autism than girls? For decades, autism research focused mostly on boys, and the picture we learned to recognize was built around them. But what if girls have been there all along — just harder to spot? Myah Gittelson, PhD reveals how autism can look different in girls. Why are many girls labeled anxious or perfectionistic instead of autistic? We also talk about misdiagnosis and what to do when your school says everything is fine. If you’ve ever wondered whether autism could be hiding in plain sight — in your daughter, your patient, or even yourself — this conversation may change how you see it.
