PCOS Awareness Month is a federally designated event. PCOS Challenge: The National Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Association is the sponsoring organization for PCOS Awareness Month and offers supporting resources, information and events. The aim of PCOS Awareness Month is to help improve the lives of those affected by PCOS and to help them to overcome their symptoms as well as prevent and reduce their risks for life-threatening related conditions.

World PCOS Day of Unity was started by PCOS Challenge: The National Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Association in September of 2018. During World PCOS Day, individuals and organizations around the world come together in solidarity to promote PCOS awareness and support the hundreds of millions of people impacted by polycystic ovary syndrome worldwide.

2020 PCOS Awareness Month Events, presented by PCOS Challenge: The National Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Association, include the Rise to the Challenge Virtual Gala, Awards Dinner and Silent Auction, Virtual PCOS Awareness Symposium, and the PCOS Challenge 5K Run/Walk National Campaign (19 Cities). The PCOS Challenge events are the largest events globally dedicated to education and raising awareness and funds to help fight polycystic ovary syndrome.
