Recognizing the seriousness of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and expressing support for the designation of the month of September 2024 as "PCOS Awareness Month".
This resolution designates September 2024 as "PCOS Awareness Month" to highlight polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a hormonal condition affecting an estimated 5-10 million U.S. women and girls. It recognizes PCOS as a serious health issue linked to infertility, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, mental health challenges, and other related conditions. The resolution urges increased public and medical education about PCOS, improved diagnosis, and research into better treatments, without creating new laws or funding. It directly supports women and girls living with PCOS by promoting awareness of its wide-ranging health impacts.
