What do your patients know?

Reproductive health misinformation harms the health of countless women. 1 

Millions of women are facing the consequences of inadequate menstrual health education, according to Flo Health’s 2023 Reproductive Health Survey. The survey, which polled 2,010 nationally representative US women aged 18 to 55, revealed some alarming gaps in knowledge.

58%

don’t know what a “normal” menstrual cycle is. 2

63%

aged 18-24 learned more about menstrual health from social media than in school. 2

93%

cannot accurately identify all phases of the menstrual cycle. 2

This is concerning, as ACOG states that menstrual cycle changes are equally useful as abnormal blood pressure, heart rate, or respiratory rate in predicting potential health problems. 3 Understanding changes early and being able to communicate them are vital. 

63% of women aged 18–24 have learned more about menstrual health from social media than in school,2 probably because only 21% of elementary schools currently provide puberty education. 4
