Mark Hyman: Why PCOS was renamed to PMOS: Explained by Dr. Tiffany Lester.
Peer-Reviewed Research
Key Takeaways
- Get tested for PMOS (formerly PCOS) using blood biomarkers like AMH, fasting insulin, and APO-B instead of relying on transvaginal ultrasounds.
- Advocate for metabolic testing if you suspect PMOS – blood tests are more accessible than ultrasounds and often covered by insurance.
- Focus on metabolic health – PMOS is a polyendocrine/metabolic disorder, not just an ovarian issue.
Notable Quotes
“Your ovaries are not broken, they’re metabolically compromised.”
Bottom Line
Request AMH, fasting insulin, and APO-B blood tests to properly diagnose PMOS (the new name for PCOS), as these metabolic markers provide more accurate and accessible insights than traditional ultrasound methods.
