Welcome to the Society for Menstrual Cycle Research

The Society for Menstrual Cycle Research is a nonprofit, interdisciplinary research organization. Our membership includes researchers in the social and health sciences, humanities scholars, health care providers, policy makers, health activists, and students with interests in the role of the menstrual cycle in women’s health and well-being.

We strive to be the source of guidance, expertise, and ethical considerations for researchers, practitioners, policy makers and funding resources interested in the menstrual cycle. The Society holds biennial meetings featuring presentations of the latest research by members. The most recent meeting was held June 4-6, 2009, in Spokane, Washington. The next meeting is scheduled for June 2-4, 2011, in Pittsburgh.

Membership is open to individuals who have an interest in research on the menstrual cycle or related issues, and who support the purposes of the Society. Dues are $50/year, or $90 for two years. Benefits of membership include access to the group’s electronic mailing list, quarterly newsletter, and discounted conference fees.
