Have to say as someone with PCOS who's never had any ovarian problems related to it so far, renaming it to Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS) seems kind of silly because we're starting to gain evidence that it might affect people who weren't born with ovaries too. I mean I get if you call it Polyendocrine Metabolic Syndrome that's PMS, so inconvenient, but I think it limits research and understanding to deny this might be a multi-gendered condition. But I think that the real true culprit of misunderstanding here is that we're approaching it from the concept of syndrome instead of trying to actually figure out if it's like three conditions in a trench coat or something, which it most likely is.
