[QUOTE="Okulu, post: 1506275, member: 228412"] Yup, I also experienced a substantial increase in insulin requirements when taking the pill - and that's on top of the fluctuating requirements that occur during the monthly cycle. And for you, also on top of being recently diagnosed and in the 'honeymoon' period. The Copper coil is your only non-hormonal contraceptive option - your insulin requirements would likely come down overall, but I would guess that you would still experience fluctuations over your monthly cycle (I did). It's all a complete pain, and I totally feel for you. Best of luck with it all - happy to answer any other questions if I can! [/QUOTE]
