I'd really like to share my own story with parents to warn them of a complication linked to diabetes that is common in young females going through puberty.
I recently discovered that i have low female horemone levels, which is high probability down to being type one diabetic.
I was diagnised at age 13/14, similar time to puberty, i went through 4 years of depression and self harm because i hadn't developed breasts, and a few days ago i finally discovered the reason, the reason being diabetes.
My message to parents is to get a blood test done for your daughter's to check horemone levels, because although it sounds silly it may affect them terribly similar to how it has affected me.
I hope this helps parents, or even teenage girls going through a similar issue, you have people there to help you! X
