[00:00:00]PCOS, that's in the Jurassic. It's PMOS now. Did you know that The Lancet has officially renamed PCOS as PMOS? That is [music] polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome. For years, people thought that PCOS was just related to ovaries [music] and called it a fertility problem. They were asked to reduce weight and come back whenever they wanted kids. What we truly missed was the metabolic side and the toll that it took on our physical and mental health. Now, PMOS conveys what it truly causes. [music] The hormonal imbalance and the metabolic systematic impact that it causes on our body and especially not [music] your fault. New name, greater care, and better awareness. And that's how we tackle it. Share this to someone you think [music] needs to know.
