Fight over athlete menstrual questions headed to Florida legislature

One Florida lawmaker said she plans to file legislation that will stop female high school athletes from being asked to turn in information about their menstrual periods to their schools when they register to play. 

State Sen. Lori Berman, D-Delray Beach, said she’d introduce a measure during the 2023 session to prohibit school districts from collecting athletes’ medical histories as part of the annual registration process.
