A member asked:
I used "steronate nor 5 mg" 3 times a day for 15 days, could it cause me diabetes or prediabetes ?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Not likely: As far as i can tell, steronate nor is an oral contraceptive. These medications do not cause diabetes. However, if you were taking it because of irregular periods, you may have polycystic ovarian syndrome, which is associated with diabetes.

No: No, but other factors such as genetics and weight certainly could. Check w/your doctor.
