Episode Details

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), one of the most common hormonal conditions in women, just got a new, more accurate name: polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome, or PMOS. In this episode, Lisa Oldson, MD breaks down what drove this historic rename, what the new name reveals about the condition's actual impact on insulin resistance, cardiovascular risk, and weight, and what's changed in how PMOS is diagnosed. 

If you've ever been diagnosed with PCOS, struggled with insulin resistance, weight gain, or hormonal issues, this episode is essential listening. Discover what the new name means, how the diagnosis is evolving, and why PMOS deserves attention well beyond the reproductive years.
