[QUOTE="pumppimp, post: 427638, member: 52090"] Hi, I definitely find my bg control is majorly effected by hormonal changes. I can go through periods of pretty much perfect control then the hormones kick in, Usually I would go higher coming on to a period then afterwards I would drop lower. Timings can vary loads though thanks to the 2 separate uterus' and the duplicated ovaries with PCOS. I can go anywhere from having a period of unsettled control for up to a year to just a few days. I never know which way it will go, but on the plus side I can also go for up to a year with perfect control as well and no periods. There's not very much research out there about it which is a shame as that means there's not very much support or knowledge to help people cope with the effects. I've tried numerous types of contraception's but the extra hormones have all just seemed to make control a lot worse for me. Being on a pump has helped loads with this erratic control and I'm hoping to get a cgm for Christmas which will help even more. [/QUOTE]
