YES, YES, & YES!!! Would love to see these recommendations adopted in the UK and, hopefully, here in the US...

The All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on PCOS launched a formal inquiry to examine the state of diagnosis, management and long-term care across the UK. These are their recommendations.

Kudos to and the PCOS charity in the UK for helping to form these recommendations.

“This report is not the end of the conversation but is the beginning of a renewed national commitment.
The APPG will continue to champion this agenda and hold the system to account until PCOS receives the policy attention, clinical clarity, and investment that those affected have waited far too long for.”

Would you like to help a first-time entrepreneur who is trying to improve fertility care? 🌟

Hello everyone! I'm a fertility physician working on a start-up idea - a product to help women navigate their TTC experience.

I'm looking to talk with about 20 women, 1 to 1, who are currently trying to conceive (ideally less than 1 year, but up to 2 years is good too) but have not yet pursued fertility treatments, including anyone trying for their first or second baby, or those who've experienced miscarriages.

What I'm hoping to learn: Finding out what would be most helpful for them BEFORE I build the product.

The details:
• 20-minute voluntary, confidential conversation via phone or zoom
• Help shape a product that will help women who are TTC

If you know someone who might be interested in supporting this mission, I'd love to connect with her. We can help improve the common and isolating experience of infertility (1 in 6 individuals have trouble conceiving, 1 in 4 have miscarriage).

Please DM me if you know someone who'd be up for sharing their ideas and I will share my contact info with you to pass on to them. Thanks for reading this and helping me make TTC more helpful for those who are still in the trying phase💕

'Just lose weight': Women with PCOS are going untreated due to 'weight-centric health care'

70% of women affected by PCOS remain undiagnosed worldwide. Why? Weight and gender bias play a crucial role.

Think you know PCOS? These facts may blow your mind 🤯

It’s an Ancient disorder
PCOS isn’t new — historical medical records suggest women have experienced symptoms consistent with PCOS for centuries.

Not cysts
Despite its name, PCOS is not about having cysts. The “cysts” seen on ovaries are actually immature follicles that never released an egg.

More muscle 💪
Research shows women with PCOS often have greater lean muscle mass due to higher testosterone levels.

More regular periods with age 🩸
Many women notice their cycles become more regular as they get older, likely due to natural hormonal changes with age.

Give monkeys testosterone, get PCOS-like
Animal studies show that when monkeys are exposed to excess testosterone, they develop symptoms similar to PCOS — evidence of how hormones drive the condition.

Genetic 🧬
PCOS has a strong genetic link. It often runs in families, with daughters, sisters, or mothers sharing symptoms.

AMH is part of diagnostic criteria 🔬
Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) levels are often elevated in PCOS and can be used as part of the diagnostic process in adults.

There is no medication approved for PCOS
While medications like birth control or metformin are used to manage symptoms, no drug is FDA-approved specifically to treat PCOS itself.

PCOS receives less than .% funding
Despite affecting approximately 1 in 8 women, PCOS research receives less than 0.1% of federal funding — far less than other conditions of similar prevalence.😡

PCOS is real. It’s complex. And it deserves more awareness, research, and support.🫶

✨ “Do I really have PCOS?” ✨

Getting a PCOS diagnosis isn’t always simple—and for many, it can take YEARS 😢

Doctors usually look for at least two of the following criteria to diagnose PCOS:

✔️ Irregular or missing periods
✔️ Signs of high androgens (like acne, excess hair growth, or hair thinning)
✔️ Polycystic ovaries seen on ultrasound OR high AMH levels

But every woman’s journey is different, and symptoms can show up in unique ways. That’s why it’s so important to work with a healthcare provider who understands PCOS.

💜 At the PCOS Nutrition Center, we’re here to support you every step of the way with evidence-based resources, supplements, and nutrition guidance.

👉 Your turn: What age were you diagnosed with PCOS? Comment below—we’d love to hear your story.

Polycystic O***y Syndrome (PCOS) is like a medical mystery novel that scientists are still trying to solve. What causes PCOS? Is PCOS caused by genetics? Hormones gone rogue? Or perhaps PCOS is caused by something in our environment?
