Female hormones as an asthma trigger

 BBC Wales News today drew attention to a distressing aspect of asthma which is still a mystery. The impact of hormones on asthma during the menstrual cycle is not peculiar to Wales, but with the closure of Asthma Cymru a few years ago, the impetus for research here has been reduced. It is also surprising that with so many women engaged in asthma research, more priority has not been given to investigate something that possibly affects half the population of young adult asthma sufferers.
