Muscular dystrophies primarily affect boys, but girls can be affected, particularly by conditions like Becker Muscular Dystrophy and Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy. Becker Muscular Dystrophy, a milder form of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, can occur in females who are carriers of the mutated gene. Similarly, Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy can manifest in both genders, with varying severity. Other forms, like Myotonic Dystrophy, also affect females and can present with different symptoms and progression.
