A paper in The Lancet announces that the new name for PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) is now PMOS (polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome). As a person with that condition, I guess I'd better start working on training myself to use the new acronym.

I agree it's a change that's needed; even when I was diagnosed almost 20 years ago, it was known that plenty of people who met the diagnostic criteria didn't have ovarian cysts.
