Period Y'all

Period poverty often goes unseen, but its impact on women and teens is significant in the Commonwealth and beyond. Governor Andy Beshear signed a proclamation last month declaring May 11 through 17 as Period Poverty Awareness Week in the Commonwealth. Dr. Greg recently got an update on the mission of the non-profit Period Y'all and its founder Skylar Davis.

Dr. Greg Davis is a forensic pathologist with UK HealthCare. Every week, Davis speaks with local health providers, professionals, and researchers on Dr. Greg Davis on Medicine.
