Headlines: Treasurer defends Govt's tax changes

After more than a decade of research and campaigning, one of the most common hormonal conditions affecting women around the world has been given a new name.

PCOS – Polycystic Ovary Syndrome –  is now called Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome.

The change is in part thanks to Australian led research out of Monash University. Today, we're going to explain what this condition actually is, why the name has changed, and what it means for the millions of people living with it.

Hosts: Emma Gillespie and Elliot Lawry
Producer: Rosa Bowden

Why is PCOS getting a new name?

Have you ever seen TikToks of people chopping on a plastic board, then pointing out all the tiny particles supposedly ending up in your food?

They’re everywhere. But how worried should we actually be? And if there is a real risk, what can we do about it?

Today, I’m speaking with Dr Nick Chartres from the University of Sydney about what the evidence says, and what you need to know.

A quick note before we start. This podcast was made possible by our friends at the University of Sydney. As always, TDA has independently written and produced all editorial content for this podcast without commercial influence.

Hosts: Billi FitzSimons and Zara Seidler
