How to better handle PCOS ?

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) affects 1 in 10 women worldwide, presenting a complex set of challenges both for patients and healthcare providers. Despite its prevalence, PCOS remains a largely misunderstood condition, often overshadowed by misinformation and lack of awareness. Our recent FTC Network meeting brought together leading experts, patients, and practitioners in a series of Think Tank workshops. These sessions focused on understanding PCOS, identifying the critical issues faced by patients, and developing actionable strategies for better management and care. This white paper distills the insights from these workshops into 10 Top Tips for handling PCOS effectively, catering to both patients and healthcare professionals.

As we start september, the month dedicated to PCOS prevention and information worldwide, we are publishing now our white paper !
