Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a common condition among women that can impact fertility, is set to be renamed. The move is intended to better represent the widespread impact it has on women’s health. PCOS affects between 8-13% of women of reproductive age and is often diagnosed in those who have difficulty conceiving. The condition is associated with an imbalance in female sex hormones that can lead to irregular periods, making it harder for women to become pregnant. The renaming seeks to raise awareness and improve understanding of the condition, which is often misunderstood and can lead to significant health problems if left untreated.
