Chromium Questions

I have a insulin resistance problem. And I am suffering recurrent miscarriage problem due to this. Metformin, clomid are not working for me. Also I am obese due to this problem. I heard chromium picolinate, magnesium and inositol supplements works good for insulin resistance and infertility problem. Can anyone please suggest me on my insulin resistance related infertility problem. Please help me.

Weight reduction is an important part of the treatment. If you are not ovulating with Clomid, letrozole could help. Along with this, myoinositol could be used

I have pcos from two years. Consulted 4-5 doctors but nothing got improved. Now, I am taking inositol 650 mg, calcium 625 mg+ vitamin d 400 iu and fish oil capsules 1200 mg. I think to start zinc and chromium supplements. Is there any possibility of chemical interaction between all these meds? Also practicing low impact exercises along with reduced sugar and processed food intake.

It is not advisable to take this medicine. Insulin resistance is the main reason why its more challenging for you to lose weight with pcos for pcos & thyroid people it takes time to reduce weight, so don't worry, do regular exercise especially cardio and make dietary changes it will help you. Take proper diet without skipping meals, including green vegetables, fruits, dairy products. Fruit is rich in fiber and is a good source of essential vitamins and minerals. Fruits with a low gi include cherries, plums, apricots, prunes and grapes.

I have PCOS problem due to which I am not able to conceive, but I have very regular periods. My gums had put me on clomid for 6 cycles and on gonadotrophin injections for 4 cycles and did IUI for 2 cycles. For this month I am not taking any medications as suggested by my gums. But she has told me to take Chirocyst Tablet (contains Chromium Picolinate, D-Chiro-Inositol, Myo-Inositol, N-Acetylcysteine, and Vitamin D3 as active ingredients). How is it going to help me? I am due to my period but still no signs. Am I pregnant? As I heard many stories which says after coming off clomid we can conceive naturally. I really need a professional advice please.

Chirocyst tablet is used in women with PCOD. It is an ovarian sensitising agent and improves hormonal ratios and reduces insulin resistance. This helps in achieving ovulation and pregnancy. Yes it is true that a few women can conceive naturally after coming off clomid. This is related to a healthy lifestyle, weight control and correction of hormonal imbalance and insulin resistance in PCOD. If you have missed a period please do a serum b-HCG which a blood test to see if you have conceived!
