Jadelle: Diabetes is not listed as a known side effect of the jadelle implant. So, it's not impossible, but it is unlikely that it caused your diabetes.

No evidence of that: No, there is no evidence that Jadelle (levonorgestrol) either causes diabetes or raises blood sugar as documented side effects.
