In the material, what alternate name is used for PCOS?

Explanation:
The idea being tested is that texts can use alternate names or acronyms for the same condition. In this material, PMOS is used as the alternate name for PCOS, so PMOS points to the same syndrome described as PCOS elsewhere. When the material introduces PMOS, it’s signaling that you should read that section as referring to polycystic ovary syndrome, just with a different label. The standard acronym PCOS remains the same condition, but the author chose PMOS as the alias in this context.
