Sexual and reproductive health and rights and climate change about menstrual discrimination: a policy review in the context of Nepal.
Review in Frontiers in global women's health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The conversation around climate, sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR), and menstruation is increasing more than ever in Nepal. The discussion between climate and SRHR is more visible and it endeavors to develop the relationship between them. The claim of the role of menstrual discrimination (MD) is the construction and reinforcement of power and patriarchal demands unveiling MD as an underlying barrier for gender-responsive climate or SRHR interventions. In this vein, this study reviewed the national policies of climate change (CC) and SRHR with MD. It aims to examine the positioning of MD in ongoing policies around SRHR and CC. It is crucial to accelerate the impact of interventions related to SRHR and CC to achieve broader gender justice and human rights. The policy-related documents regarding CC and SRHR are reviewed. The visible and invisible MD is rampant across the country regardless of class, caste, region, or religion. The Government of Nepal started to work on SRHR in 2000, although the specific policies on dignified menstruation were made in 2017. MD is missed across all the conversations of CC although it talks about gender equality and social inclusion policies (GESI). The GESI policies and programs do not spell out the discrimination related to menstruation and its impact throughout life, and the SRHR policy has a similar impact. MD is one of the missing dimensions regarding power relations, patriarchy, climate, and SRHR. This study recommends a thorough unpacking of MD, including its impact, incorporating the strategies to dismantle MD in both SRHR and ensuring CC-related policies and programs for real equality and inclusion. The findings of this research become helpful to policymakers during intervention planning to overcome the situation.
