I suspect the ratio of autistic women to men is much higher than the statistics indicate - it’s not usually as obvious in females as it is with males, partly because of how we’re socialised and how the symptoms actually manifest in us. I’m not bipolar, but was diagnosed with high functioning autism at 17 (not 100% convinced I am autistic, but I got high scores on every self test I’ve taken, and pretty much flunked the test with facial expressions lol).
