Closing the Awareness Gap Around PCOS
Geranuel PCOS Foundation was established in 2021 with a clear purpose: to address the widespread lack of awareness, delayed diagnosis and persistent stigma surrounding Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS).
PCOS is one of the most common hormonal disorders affecting women of reproductive age, yet it remains poorly understood, frequently misdiagnosed, and often dismissed as “normal” discomfort. These gaps in understanding have led to years of silent suffering, preventable complications, and missed opportunities for early intervention.
