Content for wider interest & value
On this page, I will add content contributed for wider interest and value. In some cases, this might be material provided by universities that are relevant to Science courses, but potentially to support PSE or wider health issues, e.g. mental health.
The MRC Centre for Reproductive Health at the University of Edinburgh has created the scientific animation ‘Typical and Problem Periods’ to raise awareness of menstrual problems, and offer support and guidance.
‘Typical and problem periods’ clearly and simply describes menstruation, how to identify if periods are not typical, and where to seek help.
It also highlights the important research into this topic being carried out by Dr Jacqueline Maybin and her lab group at MRC Centre for Reproductive Health.
Their vital work helps to prevent problematic periods from occurring and develops more effective treatment options.
