Florida Committee Votes Not to Collect Data on Student-Athletes' Periods
Before the emergency meeting, FHSAA executive director Craig Damonthat the group remove questions on menstrual history and only submit to schools limited information that shows whether the doctor cleared them for athletic participation and information needed for possible medical emergencies.
sent a letter saying: “As a primary care physician who has filled out many of these forms, I can tell you that there is ZERO reason for a school to know anything about an athlete’s period. It doesn’t affect whether they can play or not. The only reason for this invasion of privacy is to weed out transgender kids who might not get periods. I can’t think of a single real reason for this invasion of privacy. As a doctor, I would never fill out this form.
John Gerdes, board president and director of athletics at Clearwater Central Catholic High School, also said that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis was not involved in the proposal, as some had suggested. “I want to make clear that the governor’s office had nothing to do with it. We felt no pressure from them, they did not contact us. It’s our issue to deal with.”This device is a fraction of the cost of laser treatments but does the same thing: it applies thermal heat from LED and sonic technology to encourage blood flow, which helps resolve vaginal dryness.
