A member asked:
I am a type 1 diabetic and i haven't had my period in over 2 months. i'm not pregnant, so could my diabetes be to blame?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Perhaps: If you have poorly controlled diabetes (high Hba1c levels), this could cause menstrual irregularity. Type 1 diabetics are also at increased risk for developing premature ovarian failure due to autoimmune causes.
