The Menstrual Toxic Shock Syndrome Medical Questions Act mandates that nurse practitioners and physicians, specifically those practicing in family medicine, general obstetrics, or gynecology, inquire about menstrual cycles, tampon use, and the potential for toxic shock syndrome in female patients exhibiting symptoms of influenza or viral gastroenteritis. The healthcare providers are required to ask whether the patient has an active menstrual cycle or the date of their last menstrual cycle if not currently active. Additionally, they must determine when the patient last used a tampon and whether they experienced any related symptoms during that time.

Furthermore, the bill stipulates that healthcare providers must inform patients about the signs and symptoms of menstrual toxic shock syndrome and offer testing for the condition if certain criteria are met. These criteria include the patient showing symptoms of influenza or viral gastroenteritis, having an active or recently active menstrual cycle, and having experienced symptoms while using a tampon or shortly thereafter. The Commissioner of Health is authorized to adopt necessary regulations to implement the provisions of this act, which will take effect immediately upon passage.
