Menstrual Health and Genital Hygiene Status in Cerebral Palsy

128 participantsStarted 2021-08-01

Plain-language summary

There is little information about the menstrual health and genital hygiene behaviors of young women with CP. The most important reason for this is that women with CP did not meet the inclusion criteria and were excluded from the study. This may lead to a knowledge gap that limits the design of approaches that can help women and families with CP. Therefore, this study was planned to determine menstrual health and genital hygiene behaviors in women with CP.
