Hello everyone,

I have been diagnosed with T2 Diabetes and have suffered 3 miscarriages in 3 years. Any tips to help eliminate or control my diabetes would be appreciated. I am told my diabetes may be a factor to my miscarriages. :(

Hi LadyDiabetes

I am so sorry to hear about the terrible time you have had. I hope with some help and guidance things can change for you.

Have you spoken with your Diabetes Consultant or Diabetes Specialist Nurse about this? Most woman who have diabetes need very specialist one-on-one help from their diabetes team and gestational diabetes nurses to prepare for and go through pregnancy.

Have a look at this information from NHS Choices. It's very comprehensive, so hopefully it will be helpful

The diabetes you have diagnosed is due to pregnancy or you are suffering this before. Diabetes may be diagnosed during pregnancy it may vanish post pregnancy. Don't take any medication without supervision of any medical practitioner.

If a person is pregnant, will GRB34 cause birth defects?

Not what you're looking for?
