Hi Margaret, exercise and losing weight helped me (even if not overweight regular exercise helps with insulin resistance which can eventually lead to type 2 diabetes/heart disease)
and spearmint tea for acne/hirstutism.
I have Chinese medicine - a combination of acupuncture and herbs and it helps a lot.
Start your family on a lower carb diet (don't need to go full blown keto), but reducing carbs will help with the insulin resistance big time, and some of her symptoms may reduce dramatically.
My sister was diagnosed and it was suggested to her to stop eating meat (fish ok though) It made a huge difference for her. Something to do with an enzyme in the meat. Might be worth a try. All the best ox
