Body dysmorphic disorder in males

Approximately 1 in 50 adults have Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD). The disorder most commonly manifests in adolescence, with subclinical symptoms often occurring for years before diagnosis. Whilst there is no gender difference in the prevalence of BDD it is observed that muscle dysmorphia occurs much more often in males.

Join us in this webinar to discuss how primary care professionals can identify BDD in males earlier in the primary care setting and the referral pathways, treatment and management options available.  Our expert presenters will discuss:

  • The prevalence, aetiology and comorbidities associated with BDD
  • Screening and diagnosis
  • Treatment available
  • Referral pathways for holistic care

Following this webinar participants will be able to:

  1. Recognise orange and red flags for BDD in males in the primary care setting
  2. Apply screening and diagnosis activities within scope of practice
  3. Provide education and health behaviour support for male patients 
  4. Refer male patients for additional support
