Description

Mikaeli Carmichael and colleagues test a menstrual health education programme for female athletes, in a 2026 intervention study. Fifty one athletes in three cohorts attended two workshops and received handouts, answering surveys before, right after, and three months later. Topics covered cycle knowledge, talking with support staff, and the value of cycle tracking.

Knowledge, both real and perceived, rose after the workshops and held at three months. Willingness to talk with teammates and performance staff also rose, while talks with coaches and medical staff did not shift. Perceived value of tracking grew by follow up. Age, schooling, and contraceptive use shaped some outcomes.
