The inclusion of women on spaceflights has historically been limited. Recently, the first woman who will travel to the Moon was selected, and more women are participating in long-duration spaceflights. However, physiological data from real and simulated microgravity exposure are limited in women. This investigation studied women ( = 8, 34 ± 1 yr) and men ( = 9, 32 ± 1 yr) who underwent 2 (women) or 3 (men) mo of simulated microgravity (6° head-down tilt bed rest). Quadriceps and triceps surae muscle volumes were assessed via MRI before bed rest, ( , women and men), ( , women), and ( , men). Volume of both muscle groups decreased ( < 0.05) in women and men at all bed rest timepoints. Quadriceps muscle volume loss in women was greater than men at 1 mo ( : -17% vs. -10%, < 0.05) and this 1-mo loss for women was similar to men at 3 mo ( : -18%, > 0.05). In addition, the loss in women at 2 mo ( : -21%) exceeded men at 3 mo ( < 0.05). For the triceps surae, there was a trend for greater muscle volume loss in women compared with men at 1 mo ( : -18% vs. -16%, = 0.08), and loss in women at 2 mo was similar to men at 3 mo ( : -29%, : -29%, > 0.05). The collective evidence suggests that women experience greater lower limb muscle atrophy than men at least through the first 4 mo of microgravity exposure. More sex-specific microgravity studies are needed to help protect the health of women traveling on long-duration orbital and interplanetary spaceflights. This study adds to the limited evidence regarding sex-specific responses to real or simulated microgravity exposure, which collectively suggests a sex-specific muscle atrophy profile, with women losing more than men at least through the first 4 mo of weightlessness. Considering the increase in women being selected for space missions, including the first women to travel to the Moon, more physiological data on women in response to microgravity are needed.
