Yes, Malaysia is the place where cultures meet around good food 
Getting out of a stall takes about as long as it took to get into it.
Google dr. Lee's hormone balance test. Genetics does pay a role, but especially in Asia, the problem is usually in the diet, which makes it look as if it's inherited. Things to watch out for are too much soy and too much fish. For your GF's body weight, 1 g of soy beans and 1 g of fish oil are enough. That's only 10 g of soy foods like tofu or tempeh, and 20 g of a fatty fish like salmon. At the same time, she should be getting about 50 g of protein. So a switch to lean meat or lean fish, like tuna, may be the only way.
The multivitamin and the diet combined should have:
vitamin B complex:
vitamin B6 2-10 mg
vitamin B12 50-80 µg
folic acid 200-400 µg: spinach or other dark green leafy vegetables, asparagus, broccoli, avocado, lettuce
vitamin C, D, E
zinc 12-35 mg: seafood (oysters!), meat, chicken, dairy, oats
iron 18 mg
