PMOS / PCOS | The Vital Insight Fertility
PMOS · formerly PCOS

A metabolic condition needs a metabolic answer.

In 2026, PCOS was renamed to Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome — PMOS — a name that puts the metabolic piece, the one we measure, at its center.

The rename matters

Why PCOS became PMOS.

The 2026 renaming reflected what the research had been saying for years: this isn't just a cyst problem, it's a metabolic one. Insulin resistance, inflammation, and how your body uses energy sit at the center of the picture — and they're the levers most likely to move ovulation.

The evidence is real. In a study of overweight women who weren't ovulating, a six-month diet-and-exercise program restored ovulation in roughly 90% of participants (Clark et al., Human Reproduction, 1995). ASRM supports weight management for natural conception in that group (2021), and research shows even 5 to 10 percent weight loss can restart ovulation (van Oers et al., 2016).

This isn't a guarantee. But it is a lever — the exact lever this program measures, targets, and retests.

What we do differently

We measure the metabolism, then rebuild it.

Instead of another blanket "eat less, move more" — a 23-biomarker readout of your resting metabolism, a plan built to that specific readout, and a retest at 90 days that shows what changed.

Baseline

Where you actually are

Your resting oxygen use, fat-burning efficiency, mitochondrial function, HRV. Not a diagnosis you already have — the metabolism you actually run on.

Plan

Built to your PMOS picture

Nutrition, training, recovery, and supplements calibrated to your specific pattern. Weekly check-ins with your metabolic coach.

Retest

Proof, not hope

Day 90: same device, same conditions. Show your REI — and yourself — what actually moved.

Stop optimizing in the dark.
