6/ These findings show that menstrual experiences are social and emotional, not just physical 🩸

Empowerment comes from informed choice, access to diverse products and the ability to manage menstruation without stigma.

3/ 💡 the authors qualitative analysis relieved three key themes:

2/ 🩸 Menstruation is often treated as purely biological but cultural stigma and uneven access to resources shape people’s experiences of it. This study analysed qualitative responses from 330 UK participants to understand these relationships 🎡🇬🇧
