Menstrual health is just one part of a complex issue. Researchers say we need further studies to strengthen interventions which improve menstrual health, mental health & educational needs.

First post here to share findings from our #MenstrualHealth trial - a big effort by a big team over many years (now somehow summarized in just 4,000 words!)

I think it raises some important questions about the 'why' of improving menstrual health. Lots more to unpack soon!

🩸 Today is #MenstrualHygieneDay— a global call to raise awareness, promote hygiene, and improve access to menstrual products and supportive environments.

We’re spotlighting the MENISCUS trial, a major study from the MRC/UVRI & LSHTM Uganda research unit, with partners WoMena🧵👇
