Meanwhile, he and his colleagues are investigating the biological mechanisms by which vitamin E or pioglitazone might reverse fatty liver disease. Cusi’s research group is testing pioglitazone against fatty liver in Hispanics, who seem prone to the disease, and in people with diabetes."

For women who are unresponsive to clomiphene,the oral hypoglycemic agents like metformin could be of little help, or pioglitazone, may bring resumption of regular cycles and ovulation. These agents reduce the hyperinsulinemia and hyperandrogenemia in PCOS.
These are actually medically prescribed medicines for PCOS.As this syndrome is very common in women the case is often individualised and treatment option will be processed and prescribed.Fell free to talk to your Doc.
Is the pitting edema progressive? Are you on pioglitazone? or rosiglitazone? Answers to these questions would further help.
I am obese (300lbs), diabetic (type 2) and require medication to control hypetension. I take the following medications – Metformin, Pioglitazone, Victoza (liraglutide), Amlodipine, Ramipril, Bendroflumethiazide, Asprin and Statin.
I have a strange and embareasin problem. I hope someone out there may be able to offer some insight. I have always had sensitive nipples but in the last few days sensitivity in my left nipple has gone crazy.
HI,
It sounds like your wife will definitely need an additional medication--if not restarting the Pioglitazone, then an alternative. There are lots of different diabetes medications available that will help. Those glucose levels are indeed too high and should be addressed soon. Please ask your wife to contact her doctor as soon as possible(I suggest within the next 2 days a most) and discuss being started on another medication to bring her levels down.
Evangelin posted about this youtube video. "Sugar , the bitter truth"
It is a long video , but what I did not know before watching it is that
High Fructose Corn Syrup metabolically is as bad as alcohol for the liver.
The majority of processed foods we find in the supermarket have High Fructose
Corn Syrup which can majorly effect obesity and fatty liver.
Other newer insulin-sensitising medicines include pioglitazone. This is not currently recommended for PCOS. For certain people with PCOS, a specialist may advise that metformin be taken. However, further research is needed to confirm the role of these medicines in the treatment of PCOS.

The month of April is National Autism Awareness month. Because this is a subject that touches many, and is frequently a topic of discussion not only on this site - but across the entire world of media and journalism – ScientificBlogging will be presenting a special series of articles focused on autism during the month of April.
I have a son that is 8 months old and i was just wondering what the likelyhood of him developing autism is and if there is a way to have a test to see if my parterner and i carry the gene? we are desperate to find out as we are wondering if we should ever have any more children in the future!
my sons uncel on maturnal side has slight asbergers and his uncel on paturnal side has sever autism. We suspect his great uncel on maturnal side to have slight autism althought never diagnosed.
They say vaccinations cause autism to but honestly I would much rather my kid have autism then polio.
This is a common question in any family with someone diagnosed with autism. The strongest causal evidence points to genetics playing a role and children with a sibling with autism are more likely to have autism than children who don't have a sibling with autism. The actual percentage chance is unknown at this point.
I have seen a case where autism has been cured after exposure to chlorite. The autism had started after a vaccination at the age of ten and lasted for over 10 years. The cure occurred after cleaning for the first time with chlorite without gloves and inhaling the vapour. The exposure was followed by a painful autoimmune disease, arthritis, that lasted 8-9 months but eventually ended. The arthritis was treated with living foods, yoga and mediation.
New studies have 100% shown that the delivery of the child has nothing to do with autism. I have two children with autism, my first son was an extremely bad delivery and we both almost died. My third child was a perfect pregnancy and delivery and she still has autism. My husband has asperges and so does his other son to his previous marriage. 100% genetic!
They say he has some characteristics of autism but they say they have to do more test. I read about autism and most of the symptoms of autism my son has especially the repeating (echolalia). Should I be worried? I know something is wrong but I need to know what so I can get him treatment and learn more about autism if he has it.
my boyfriends brother has autism. I don't know much about it but it's not severe. They have different dads. But I was wondering is it hereditary? Is there a chance my unborn baby can have it ?
Do you know if your brother in law has autism caused by Fragile X (easy to test via a simple bloss test) ? If so, that type of autism (which is a minority of the cases) is passed to the child by the mother. If he has autism caused by fragile X but you yourself do not carry the fragile X chromosome, you probably will not have a child with autism. You need to see a genetic specialist. Do your research and go ask the questions.
