Boys are diagnosed with ADHD more often than girls, with a varying ratio of 2:1 to 9:1 depending on the specific type. 2
Inattention is the most common type of ADHD diagnosed in girls. This type is the least likely of the three to be noticed in the early school years. It may not be detected until late childhood. 2 Many girls may not be diagnosed and properly treated for the disorder until later in life.
