PCOS or PMOS, What’s the Difference?
PCOS has long been used to describe a common hormonal condition affecting women, but you may start hearing a new term: PMOS (Polymetabolic Ovarian Syndrome). Why the change?
In this episode of Health Matters, OB/GYN Dr. Nitisha Mutgi explains why experts are moving beyond the name PCOS, how PMOS better reflects the condition's impact on overall health, and what women should know about metabolic health, heart disease risk and long-term care. Learn why early diagnosis and regular monitoring can help you take charge of your health.
