PMOS Metabolic Ovary Syndrome: Goodbye PCOS! | Christine Horton

00:00

01:02:15

Have you ever wondered why standard PCOS advice feels like being told to just walk on a broken leg?

Join me as I sit down with certified health coach, dental hygienist, and founder of Fusion Health Coaching, Christine Horton, to uncover why we are officially ditching outdated labels for PMOS (Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome)

For decades, the medical system treated this strictly as a period or fertility problem—completely missing the fact that it is a systemic metabolic condition affecting our entire body for life.

Together, we'll discuss why understanding this name change is a game-changer for getting the real answers and targeted care you actually deserve.

We'll also connect the dots between oral health and hormones, diving into the mouth-body connection and the link between oral systemic health, inflammation, and insulin resistance.

Christine will give us insider tips for spotting your criteria, tackling PCOS symptoms, and uncovering sneaky PCOS root causes starting right inside your mouth.

If you have ever thought about ditching the guesswork and taking charge of your metabolism, now is the time!
