The first two PCOS flags were coined by Tumblr user aestheticlgbtq on December 20th of 2020. Teal was used as it is a color commonly associated with PCOS awareness and represents community and healing, while the circle represents wholeness and encourages a lack of shame over ones body and appearance. Purple represents ambiguity between [[wolffian]] and [[müllerian]] while white represents how PCOS can affect any gender.<ref>https://aestheticlgbtq.tumblr.com/post/638041361200906240/proposed-pcos-pride-flag-i-view-pcos-as-being-a</ref>
The third PCOS flag was coined by Wiki user [[User:Ayyowazzupking|Ayyowazzupking]] on September 9th of 2021. It has no confirmed meaning.<ref>https://lgbta.wikia.org/wiki/PCOS?commentId=4400000000000196712</ref>
