Hi Gal,
The medication is in fact Avandia and the article is in the August issue of Redbook. Glucophage is the other med used in the drug trial which was conducted at the University of Texas Health Science Center. The two meds used in the study are used to treat diabetes and apparently, PCOS women are often insulin-resistant, which results in hormone imbalances.
The author of the article, Victoria Kogan, is the president of the Texas PCOS organization and their web address is: austinpcos.org
Hope this helps!
Nicole
