Hi,
When other female's have been diagnosed with Diabetes did your periods stop at all? I came off the pill about 8 months ago and my period was visiting about every 2 months. But l cant remember the last time l had it now and assume its due to the weight loss and stress the Diabetes (only Diagnosed about a month and a half ago). Some of my friends have got polycystic ovarian syndrome and a symptom is your period stopping. Im sure its not that but its on my mind. Whenever l mention it to my docs they all say that its prob the Diabetes and to give it a few months to settle down.

:lol: :lol: Just checking! Sometimes the simplest answer is the right one!!

Possibly with all the stress and changes it has knocked you cycle out but the doctors should be able to confirm this.Maybe going back on the pill for a short while would get your cycle back on track again,discuss this option with your doctor.
