Did you know that polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) has been given a new name?

Registered dietitian and PMOS expert Angela Grassi explains why experts are moving toward the term Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS) and what this change means for women living with the condition. In this video, you'll learn: • Why the term "polycystic ovary syndrome" can be misleading • The connection between PMOS (formerly PCOS), insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes • How PMOS affects metabolic and endocrine health • Why the new name emphasizes the condition's broader health impacts • Lifestyle, nutrition, and treatment strategies that can help manage symptoms Understanding PMOS as a metabolic and endocrine condition—not just a reproductive condition—may help women receive earlier diagnosis, better support, and more comprehensive care. #PCOS #PMOS #InsulinResistance #Type2Diabetes #WomensHealth #HormoneHealth #PCOSAwareness #MetabolicHealth #DiabetesPrevention
