Researchers want to understand how what athletic women eat and know about nutrition might affect their menstrual periods. Some athletic women experience missing or irregular periods, and this study explores whether nutrition knowledge and eating habits play a role in these menstrual changes.
Athletic women sometimes develop irregular or absent periods, and doctors aren't always sure why. This study aims to discover whether how much women know about nutrition and their actual eating habits contribute to these menstrual problems—knowledge that could help doctors provide better support.
