A debilitating condition for many women, dysmenorrhoea has a major impact on a person’s quality of life and productivity.
With a significant number of the menstruating population experiencing pain, discomfort and health related complications, the resultant health care utilization results in considerable economic impact due to both decreased productivity and the high cost of medical care.
From rising costs to employers to the impact of this condition on the workforce, the annual costs borne by companies have only grown and continue to see their costs rising. The lack of sensitivity and understanding towards employees experiencing the many impacts of dysmenorrhea also has a direct impact on outcomes, productivity, employee morale and workplace culture.
