In this episode, we explore the major shift from PCOS to PMOS—Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome—and what this updated definition means for women’s health. We discuss why this condition extends far beyond ovarian cysts, how insulin resistance, stress hormones, gut health, environmental toxins, and metabolic dysfunction all contribute to symptoms, and why functional medicine is changing the conversation around fertility, hormones, and long-term health.
