Article here. Excerpt:

'Particularly for women, transitioning from active duty to veteran is fraught with challenges. You leave what feels like another world, carrying the accolades and wounds of all your military experience with you into the civilian world. There is no longer a structured framework that you must conform to; employment and education seem uncertain. For many women, this can lead to depression and anxiety. It’s hard to mold the military side of you back into a civilian. The transition is a process, and you emerge a very different civilian than who you were before active duty.'

It's only a problem in need of addressing if it affects women and girls. Other than that... no.
