We have a lot of Celebrate for PMOS Awareness Month!
PCOS just got a new name — and it's about time.
After more than a decade of research and input from 22,000+ patients and providers worldwide, Polycystic O***y Syndrome (PCOS) has officially been renamed:
Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS)
Here's why it matters 👇
For years, the name "PCOS" made this feel like an o***y problem — all about cysts. That led to confusion, missed diagnoses, and countless people being told "you don't have cysts, so it's not PCOS" — even while living with the real symptoms.
The truth? This condition was never just about the ovaries. It touches hormones, metabolism, skin, mental health, and more.
PMOS finally names that reality!
