Yes, all three terms refer to the same condition. PCOD (Polycystic Ovarian Disease) is an older term still commonly used in India. PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) has been the internationally recognised medical name.

Many people with the condition do not have ovarian cysts, which led to underdiagnosis under the older names.
