research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, Medical Semantics, And The Political Ecology Of Health In India
The paper explored the rise of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in India, linking it to sociocultural, environmental, and political-economic changes following the country's economic liberalization in 1991.
