Hi all,
I am a 19 yr old female and type 1 diabetic, lately I have been getting painful periods which cause me really bad pain and nausea, I spoke to a doctor about going on the combined pill but he said the pill can cause blood clots and he doesn’t want to risk that seeing as I am diabetic. But when I was 16 I was on this pill and been on quite a few but haven’t found the right one for me, he also said I should try the coil but I really don’t want this, are their any other contraception what I could try whats safe for diabetics too? Or any recommendations what anyone is on? Thank you x
