Menopause and diabetes (Part 2)
Menopause matters in diabetes care. Hot flushes aren’t the only sign of the menopause. Hormonal changes during perimenopause and menopause can affect insulin resistance, glucose levels, sleep, mood and weight. For women living with diabetes, these changes can make management more complex. For healthcare professionals, they are often not fully explored in routine consultations.
