At our recent #HealthResearch event with @crnwestengland we were asked about #PMDD research - 5% of the female pop’n affected - our (local) participant gave up Sport (netball & others) as a result as she hit puberty. Could @EnglandNetball help share info/inform? @viciouscyclepmd

'I get such severe pre-menstrual stress it causes depression and I tried to take my own life - but I'm shamed for not fasting during Ramadan' - Annika.
Experiences of menstrual health are individual. They can also be shaped by factors such as religion, culture, gender & family.
"Annika says that there is a stigma and shame around periods and disorders like hers in Muslim communities. She adds: “This is a culture problem. Hormonal issues are not talked about in the Muslim communities"
