Method Sixty-four patients were randomly allocated to two groups. The treatment group received combined acupuncture and medicine and the control group, oral administration of metformin. The course of treatment was three months. Pre-treatment and post-treatment indicators were statistically analyzed in the two groups of patients. Result BMI, waist to hip ratio, fasting insulin, fasting blood glucose and HOMA-IR improved significantly in the treatment group of patients after treatment; there were statistically significant pre-/post-treatment differences (P<0.05). Post-treatment BMI and waist to hip ratio improved more markedly in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.05).
