Chromimum Picolinate a different approach to treatment of PCOS that offers much hopeFrom: Marie (anonymous@obgyn.net)Wed, 24 Sep 2003 20:41:06 -0500 (CDT)
Hi, I happened by here for another reason and discovered much discussion regarding Rx:Metformin/Glucophage, and had recently posted information regarding a supplement, Chromimum Picolinate that has been used successfully for conditions like PCOS. Here are the links to the articles so you can have access to this information. Interesting that we spend hundreds of dollars/pounds/etc buying brand name Rx, when it turns out there is something that can be had for less than$20 p/month and is safer and turning out to be quite versitile, something to consider. A supplement:Chromium Picolinate(other forms of chromium not absorbed well)has been found to safely treat PCOS etc. it works by a different route and lowers lipids, stabilizes blood sugar/insulin levels/resistance so works for both hypo/hyper in doses of 500-1000mg per day(divided doses w/meals)this may be another option to consider with your doctor. Here are several links where this is discussed and links and references to studys, one from a recent conference: http://www.diabetesincontrol.com/features/i158_2.pdf http://www.ivf.com/pcostreat.html http://oak.cats.ohiou.edu/~cp391990/presentations.html I hope this helps, Marie
