Emotions everywhere, cramps, lots of blood then during the period... just totally unfair!I am eighteen and I'm type one and my diabetes consultant put me on a light contraceptive pill called Microlite, by Bayer.It has virtually no effect on my blood glucose levels. The main thing is that it's reduced the pain SO MUCH. I can walk up the stairs now!  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /> I know that sounds so sad but it's great! I don't really feel any pain now during my period, just mild discomfort. It used to be so bad that I'd have to lie in bed groaning and feeling sorry for myself, desperately clutching a hot water bottle.I'm sure if you mention your daughter is a type one diabetic they will prescribe something that will suit her.Best of luck,Izzy.</blockquote>
