Are you struggling with:
These symptoms are common in women with Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS), formerly known as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), one of the most prevalent hormonal disorders affecting women today. Many patients come to us frustrated after trying traditional approaches that only treat symptoms without addressing underlying causes.
At Alternative Family Medicine & Chiropractic, we use a Functional Medicine approach to PCOS/PMOS, focusing on metabolic health, natural hormone balance, and long-term wellness.
PMOS / PCOS is a hormonal and metabolic condition that can impact multiple systems in the body. While often associated with ovarian cysts, PMOS / PCOS affects far more than the ovaries. It frequently involves:
When these systems are disrupted, symptoms like irregular cycles, acne, weight gain, and excess hair growth can occur. Functional Medicine focuses on identifying why these symptoms are happening rather than simply masking them.

Have questions about PMOS, formerly known as PCOS? Learn more about the recent name change, common symptoms, and why this hormonal and metabolic condition affects more than just the ovaries.
PMOS / PCOS is a hormonal and metabolic disorder commonly associated with irregular periods, ovarian cysts, excess androgen levels, insulin resistance, acne, unwanted hair growth, weight changes, and fertility challenges.
PCOS has been renamed Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS) to better reflect that the condition affects more than the ovaries. The updated name recognizes the broader hormonal and metabolic factors involved.
Yes. PMOS refers to the same condition previously known as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). Many patients, providers, and search tools may continue using the term PCOS during the transition.
We use both terms to stay current with updated medical language while also making information easy to find for people who are still familiar with the term PCOS.
Common symptoms may include irregular or missed periods, ovarian cysts, acne, excess facial or body hair, thinning hair, weight gain, insulin resistance, blood sugar changes, and difficulty getting pregnant.
Many patients benefit from a whole-body approach that supports hormone balance, blood sugar regulation, nutrition, gut health, stress response, and inflammation. Treatment plans should be personalized based on each patient’s symptoms, labs, and health history.
Living with PMOS / PCOS can feel overwhelming, but lasting improvement is possible when underlying causes are addressed. At Alternative Family Medicine & Chiropractic, we help patients take a root-cause approach to hormone health using Functional Medicine.
