The NHS explains that although there is no cure for dementia at the moment, an early diagnosis means its progress can be slowed down in some cases, so the person may be able to maintain their mental function for longer.
This means a diagnosis helps people with dementia get the right treatment and support.
Dementia UK outlines some risks, such as age, which are associated with the condition.
For example, it states: “Gender: more women are affected by dementia than men. Worldwide, women with dementia outnumber men two to one. Twice as many women over the age of 65 are diagnosed with Alzheimer’s than men whereas vascular dementia is diagnosed in slightly more men than women.”
