This bill creates two new sections of law. One requires the University of Washington, working with Washington State University and other stakeholders including people with lived experience of endometriosis, to develop an online resource center about endometriosis. The resource center must offer best practices and evidence-based information on detecting and diagnosing endometriosis, providing care, and communicating with patients for health care professionals, health care-related organizations, and health systems. UW must update the resource center every three years and hold at least one stakeholder meeting during each update. The bill directs UW to identify and make available materials beginning July 1, 2027, and by July 1, 2028. That section expires December 31, 2031. The bill also directs the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction to incorporate menstrual health information into the state health and physical education learning standards under RCW 28A.655.070, including material on how to distinguish typical menstrual discomfort from more severe symptoms that may warrant additional medical attention such as endometriosis. That section expires June 30, 2029. These provisions create new law and impose procedural requirements on UW, WSU, and OSPI. The text supplied does not specify definitions for key terms, the meaning of the dual July 2027/July 2028 timing, which other stakeholders or topics must be included, or any funding, staffing, hosting, enforcement mechanisms, or the schedule for OSPI’s standards revision.

If enacted, the University of Washington will need to develop and host an online endometriosis resource in partnership with Washington State University and stakeholders with lived experience, make materials available by mid-2027–mid-2028 (the exact deadline is unclear), and then update that resource every three years while holding at least one stakeholder meeting for each update; the resource and that duty expire at the end of 2031. The Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction will be obligated to add menstrual health content into state health and physical education standards when it next revises them, including teaching how to tell routine menstrual pain from symptoms that may require medical attention; that requirement expires mid-2029. Practically this raises immediate work and coordination responsibilities for UW and WSU, and some new curriculum work for OSPI, with likely staff time and modest development costs but no funding identified in the text, so agencies may need to reallocate resources or seek funding. Health care professionals, health systems, and people with endometriosis could gain more accessible, evidence-based guidance and communication tools, potentially improving detection and care, but timing, scope of stakeholder involvement, exact topics covered, and who pays for the work are not specified and create implementation uncertainty.
