Evana® Menstrual Cycle Survey

In the Autumn of 2024, Evana® undertook a survey of 228 people to gauge the general public’s understanding of the menstrual cycle.

Here, we share some of our most illuminating results, pointing to a lack of understanding across ages and genders and a desire for greater knowledge. 

56% of the sample stated they did not even feel 'moderately confident' naming all four phases of the menstrual cycle, with 29% 'not being confident at all.'

Only 8% stated they were 'very confident' when it came to naming the four phases of the menstrual cycle.
