A vast majority of the U.S. population has no knowledge of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), including many of the women and adolescent girls who may be affected by PCOS. Females must be aware of the symptoms, health precautions, and risks for diseases associated with PCOS to help prevent future health complications.

The mission of the PCOS Foundation is to spread knowledge and understanding of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). The PCOS Foundation’s programs are created concerning three key concepts: awareness, education and outreach.
