Manage episode 317071234 series 3161069
Kelly McNulty is a PhD student at Northumbria University in the UK, investigating the effects of the menstrual cycle and hormonal contraceptive use on performance, recovery, and adaptation in sportswomen. She has recently launched a project and podcast (*coming soon*) – the period of the period – which aims to promote awareness and increase evidence-based education on the topics surrounding women's health and performance in sport and exercise.
In this podcast, Kelly, gave some insights and advice for researchers and practitioners based on the results of her systematic review and meta-analysis on menstrual cycle and its effects on performance and her sister study on oral contraception. We also talked about her Twitter and podcast project - the period of the period - as well as her future PhD study, and how she has had to adapt it, in light of COVID-19.
