Girls with autism tend to go undiagnosed for a longer period of time because they often don't fit autism stereotypes and may mask symptoms better than boys do
A leading health expert has highlighted five common signs of autism in girls, which can often be overlooked due to the majority of studies focusing on boys.
In the first part, he reminds viewers that "remember that autism is a spectrum so there is a wide range of signs and symptoms, these are just a few and in my experience, the most common", the M.E.N reports. "But sometimes what tends to happen is they internalise these anxieties but you will recognise that they struggle when the routines change, that they get very upset when other children don’t play in the way that they’d like to do. They always like to be early and on time, but although they have these difficulties they don’t like to draw attention to themselves and make a fuss, as I mentioned.
"They will often have difficulties with understanding when there’s problems in relationships and how to sort these out effectively. And in situations where it’s less structured they have difficulties with navigating social interactions to build friendships and relationships.
