FemTech in India: Transforming Women's Healthcare Through Digital Innovation
The recent renaming of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) to Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS) reflects the growing recognition that the condition affects multiple body systems rather than being only a reproductive disorder.
