New NHS Guidance: 4 Million Women with Irregular Periods Should Be Investigated for PMOS

New NHS guidance suggests investigating up to 4 million women with irregular periods for Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS), previously known as Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. The condition, affecting up to 13% of reproductive-age women, is often underdiagnosed and inconsistently managed. The guidance covers a wider demographic and emphasizes annual reviews for monitoring symptoms and associated health risks.
