If you can't answer this question, you're obviously not ready for marriage

A global consensus of over 50 medical organizations and thousands of patients just officially changed the name of PCOS. It is officially called now polyendocrine metabolic ovarien syndrome ( PMOS)

This is a shift In how doctors will look at, diagnose and treat this condition. So why the change ?

The ovarian cysts are juts a SYMPTOM and they are harmless. You don't even need them to have this condition. And because of this millions of women go undiagnosed.

The new name acknowledge the endocrine part of the condition, that is a whole body hormonal imbalance, oestrogen, progesterone, testosterone, insulin etc. And the metabolic part which is a huge one and its root driver is the insulin resistance.

How does this change everything?

We are moving away from the old lazy approach of " khoudi lkina, diri regime, w nqsi fl wezn". Doctors now must treat the metabolic disorder, screen earlier for diabetes and heart health, and therapies like GLP1 receptor agonist ( ozempic, victoza etc ) can be used.

I'll start :

Laynejik mn lmachta9 ila da9

I used 2tbs of chia seeds

1/2 cup of milk

3tbs of oats

1 Greek yogurt

1tbs of honey

I left it in the fridge overnight, but by the morning it was still super watery and didn't thicken at all. Did I use too much milk or not enough chia seeds?
