The Female Athlete Triad Position Stand has been updated. Read it here .

The Female Athlete Triad Coalition represents key medical, nursing, athletic, and sports medicine groups, as well as concerned individuals who come together to promote optimal health and well-being for female athletes and active women.

The Coalition strives to prevent the Female Athlete Triad through advocacy, education, global leadership, public policy, and research.

The Female Athlete Triad Coalition formed in 2002 as a group of national and international organizations dedicated to address unhealthy eating behaviors, hormonal irregularities, and bone health among female athletes and active women.

The Coalition developed from the global, collaborative desire to support cultures that promote healthy athletic environments, establish public policy, effect change in national and international governing bodies, eliminate inappropriate dietary treatment approaches of female athletes, provide education about the Triad, and determine the scope of the problem through research.
