    Beyond the Cyst.

    Why are we still calling it Polycystic Ovary Syndrome when science, lived experience, and logic say it’s so much more than that? In this episode of Beyond the Cyst, i unpack the history, science, and stigma behind the outdated term PCOS—and explores why the time has come to rename it. From the 1935 origins of the diagnosis to the latest 2024 research, this conversation challenges everything we thought we knew about the condition. Whether you’re living with PCOS, supporting someone who is, or simply curious about how language shapes healthcare—this episode offers clarity, compassion, and a call to action. 💡 You’ll learn:     •    Why the term “polycystic” is medically misleading     •    The systemic and hormonal roots of PCOS most people don’t talk about     •    Proposed new names—and what they get right (and wrong)     •    Why renaming isn’t just semantics—it’s about better care, visibility, and advocacy This episode is a must-listen if you’ve ever felt misunderstood, misdiagnosed, or dismissed because of a condition that deserves more than a 90-year-old label. 🎧 Tune in and let’s rethink the name together. 📩 Want the full paper?

    The Game-Changer: AMH Testing

    The inclusion of AMH testing as an alternative diagnostic tool is particularly significant for those who have avoided getting tested due to the invasive nature of the ultrasound. With AMH, the diagnostic process becomes less invasive and quicker, and it can be done with just a blood draw. This makes the diagnostic process more comfortable and accessible for many women. If you’ve been experiencing symptoms of PCOS, such as irregular periods, excessive hair growth, acne, or difficulty with weight management, now is the time to get tested. With AMH as a new indicator, the barrier to diagnosis has been significantly lowered. Speak to your healthcare provider about getting an AMH test.
