This study was conducted in Europe and published in the journal
of clinical oncology and it states that women are less likely to die from
melanoma than men. There were more than 2,600 participants that were followed
for 12 years of which 366 men died and 267 women. They explained the reason
this happens is simply due to the biological differences between the sexes. As
well as, when they measured the thickness of the tumors, women still had an
advantage over men. There was no specific reasoning as to why women are less
likely to die from this disease.
