Crynodeb
Firstly, we examined the physical, psychological and environmental challenges females face on expeditions, including endurance events, regarding their menstrual cycle. We then evaluated the evidence on management methods with considerations for various climates and sporting environments.
With only 35% of participants in outdoor activities, and 20% in mountain sports being female, we must consider how and why there is a gender gap. By presenting our findings, we hope to give females the opportunity to take control of their cycles. It is the responsibility of everyone involved in expeditions to educate themselves on menstruation, and together we can encourage more females to participate in adventurous activities.
