In this paper, women's alcohol use and related problems are examined and special reference is given to the various psycho‐social factors involved. The need for a special treatment approach for women is discussed and the lack of knowledge in this area highlighted. The areas of alcohol relapse and women‐only groups are explored as possible areas for future development and research.
