## Summary

**Recognizes polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) as a serious, common health disorder and designates September 2025 as PCOS Awareness Month.** The resolution endorses efforts to raise public and clinician awareness, improve diagnosis and treatment, and share guidance to prevent comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes, endometrial cancer, heart disease, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. It highlights that about 10 percent of U.S. women may have PCOS, roughly 70 percent are undiagnosed, and the annual U.S. burden exceeds $15 billion. The text calls for more research, better care, and urges states and health professionals to support awareness and improved outcomes for girls and women with PCOS.
