Learn morePCOS Has Been Officially Renamed; And the New Name Changes Everything
PCOS has been officially renamed Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS) to better reflect the condition’s true nature as a complex hormonal and metabolic disorder, not just an ovarian issue. The old name was considered misleading because it focused on “cysts,” even though research shows abnormal ovarian cysts are not the defining feature of the condition. PMOS affects multiple systems in the body and may involve hormonal imbalance, insulin resistance, irregular periods, fertility challenges, skin concerns, fatigue, sleep issues, anxiety and depression. The name change follows a 14-year global consultation involving researchers, clinicians, patients and professional organisations. It marks an important shift toward earlier diagnosis, clearer communication and more holistic care. For women living with PMOS, the change highlights the importance of looking beyond reproductive symptoms and supporting overall wellbeing, including metabolic, gut, skin, energy and mood health, alongside medical care.
