Abstract
This study seeks to use a data science approach to explore the social impact of the CampusCup program on the attitudes about menstruation by analyzing differences between students who participate in CampusCup and those who do. The study found a statistically significant difference in attitudes about menstruation among individuals who participated in the CampusCup program and those who do not use menstrual cups. This study also found that in addition to menstrual cup usage, functionality appreciation, knowledge about menstrual health, and perceived university support for menstruators are all significant factors in the prediction of attitudes about menstruation.
