PCOS is Now PMOS — Understanding the Name Change

PCOS is now PMOS — but why the name change?

The new name, PMOS — Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome, highlights that this condition goes beyond reproductive health. Research has shown that women with PCOS have an increased risk of insulin resistance, Type 2 Diabetes, cardiovascular disease and MASLD (fatty liver disease). This makes it important to monitor metabolic health markers such as blood glucose, blood pressure and cholesterol, in addition to addressing reproductive symptoms.

Current PCOS management guidelines recognize lifestyle intervention as an important part of management. A personalized lifestyle approach — including nutrition, physical activity, sleep, stress management and sustainable behaviour change — alongside appropriate medical treatment is therefore key to supporting both reproductive and long-term metabolic health.

Across all chapters of the 𝗣𝗮𝗸𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻 𝗔𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘆𝗹𝗲 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗲 (𝗣𝗔𝗟𝗠), the Global Week for Action on NCDs is being observed .

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) continue to place an ever-increasing burden on individuals, families, communities, and health systems worldwide. The growing burden calls for a shift from a predominantly treatment-focused approach towards 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴.

Lifestyle Medicine is foundational medicine.By addressing the root causes and modifiable risk factors of NCDs, we can help prevent disease, improve health outcomes, and reduce the overall burden of NCDs.

This week, PALM chapters stand together to spread awareness, inspire healthier choices, and advocate for stronger action against NCDs.

From awareness to action. From treatment to prevention. From individuals to communities — together, we can make a difference.

Diseases which are not communicated between people. They can be acute and chronic. Examples being Ischemic heart disease, Diabetes and other metabolic diseases and cancers.

A general blanket statement is given by most that its in our 'genes' and as such we are bound to be victims of our genetic predisposition. This is far fetched and far from the truth. Yes, the genes responsible for these problems can be inherited however how they are triggered is based on our lifestyles. This aspect of genetics is called 'Epigenetics'.
The following lifestyle factors when dysregulated can push us towards NCDs

1- Food
2- Sleep
3- Physical activity or lack there of
Stress
4- Harmful substance use
5- Social connections and isolation.

We have it in our hands to prevent NCDs by living balanced and mindful lives. Even the smallest of changes we make in our lives can result in positive changes by many magnitudes.
Start today!

𝐍𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐬: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐥𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐁𝐮𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐧 & 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡

Noncommunicable diseases are long-term conditions arising from a combination of genetic, physiological, environmental and behavioural factors. The four major groups—cardiovascular diseases, cancers, chronic respiratory diseases and diabetes—represent the largest share of the global NCD burden. The latest WHO estimates report at least 43 million NCD deaths in 2021, representing approximately 75% of non-pandemic-related deaths globally. Importantly, 18 million people died from NCDs before the age of 70, with 82% of these premature deaths occurring in low- and middle-income countries.

The important message is not simply how large the burden is. It is that many of the pathways leading to NCDs are modifiable—and prevention can begin long before disease becomes clinically apparent.
