Description
Levicatus Mugenyi leads a team of twelve in a 2024 study on why some Ugandan schoolgirls never got a free menstrual cup. Cups widen the choice of period products and can ease school life. In a big school trial, parents and girls each had to agree to the cup on its own, and some said no.
The data cover 3,705 girls past their first period in 60 schools, mean age about 15 and a half. The team modeled which traits track with a parent's no and with a girl's no, in two linked frames. The results point to where cup programs must build trust first.
