Type 1 & Clomid

Bumping this for,you @Patch13 If you don't get replies here, I can move it to the Pregnancy section. There are women here who've taken Clomid. Perhaps you could try a Search and see what threads come up?

I've moved it for you @Patch13 and I've left a redirect in Type 1 too. Hopefully you'll get some replies later : )

@Patch13 No replies yet, but I think, from looking at past threads, that some members have found that Clomid can raise the blood sugar.

Your friend won't know how it'll affect them until they start taking it, but it might be something they would want to,discuss in advance with their DSN to make sure they're confident about what to do if it does put their levels up. If they're only going to be taking it for a few days per month, then they could perhaps use a temp basal if any highs are only on those few days they're taking it.

I think like with any drug that can affect your hormones, the response can be individual.

Hi there! I was on clomid but I don't remember it having much of an impact on sugars although saying that it may be because it didn't work for me that I didn't notice a big change. Obviously if your friend is trying to get pregnant she will be closely monitoring her BS to keep in pregnancy targets and while undergoing fertility treatment of any kind she needs to test test test to spot any changes to BS. As @azure says anything hormone related is likely to have some effect but everyone is different. Hope it is successful for her!
