| A few years ago when I was taking a steroid, my blood sugars skyrocketed along with my then hypothyroidism. This lasted approx. 3 months, during which time I had stopped the steroid. Everything went back to normal.
I've been on different fertility medications for about two years prior to my pregnancy. I noted the high sugars actually right before the egg retrieval. I was taking birth control pills to regulate my cycle.
My endo is unsure at this time whether or not it was all the medications that threw me overboard with diabetes. He's not sure if it will resolve a bit after the birth of my baby. I was definitely predisposed to getting diabetes. I guess bad eating habits, stress and the medications on top of it were also contributors.
Medications are like studies in progress sometimes. With all the buffers and different reactions within your body, no one really knows exactly what a medication can do to different body organs and functions. I do strongly believe medications played a big role in my getting diabetes. I'm in very good control and I just hope that after the baby, my pancreas will kick in a bit.  |
