A course you can trust: clinically backed, peer-reviewed, and available through your GP on social prescription

“This new course builds on the ambitions set out in our Women’s Health Strategy to ensure women have access to accurate information about their health and are empowered to seek help if they need to – whether that’s from healthcare professionals, their employer or their family and friends."

 

Women’s Health Ambassador, Professor Dame Lesley Regan

"We know that many women suffer with physical and mental symptoms during their menstrual cycle, such as pain, heavy menstrual bleeding, and premenstrual syndrome (PMS). The stigma surrounding periods also often acts as a barrier to them accessing support. The Menstrual Cycle Support course is a vital step to increase the availability of reliable, accurate information about periods to women and girls."

 

Dr Edward Morris, President of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists
