The story so far

Women with PMOS (previously called PCOS) are at a significantly higher risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, heart attacks, and strokes. A study published by The Lancet and involving 2.5 million women in the US indicates a fourfold increase in heart disease risk for those with the condition.

Coverage from NDTV, The American Journal of Managed Care, and The Times of India emphasizes the correlation between this hormonal condition and cardiovascular risk. Additionally, reports from UCI Health and WTNH focus on the transition from the name PCOS to PMOS, suggesting the change may improve diagnosis.

Attention is shifting toward the prevalence of the condition, with theweek.in reporting that one in eight women globally are affected, while The Indian Express notes that one in five Indian women currently live with PMOS.
