Original Note:
PCOS is already claimed by some as an ‘intersex’ condition. https://ihra.org.au/16601/intersex-numbers/ The term ‘intersex’ is outdated & misleading. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK557435/#:~:text=The%20previous%20terms%2C%20such%20as,of%20sexual%20development%20(DSD). PCOS is an endocrine imbalance causing damage to the ovaries. As it affects ovaries only, it is a condition affecting only females. https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/polycystic-ovary-syndrome-pcos/
