Shahbaz et al. find that female long COVID patients with ME/CFS exhibit heightened inflammation, altered hematopoiesis, disrupted hormone levels, and neuroinflammatory gene signatures. In parallel, our study identifies sex-specific immune and hormonal biomarkers that correlate with clinical symptoms, supporting the need for tailored therapeutic strategies, including consideration of hormone replacement therapy.
