Abstract: | There is a very strong need for an effective and reliable method of contraception in the diabetic woman. An unplanned pregnancy that occurs when her diabetes is not under good control can have disastrous consequences, ranging from abortion to a congenitally malformed fetus. The most important factor in the contraceptive decision for the diabetic patient, especially the IDDM patient, is that the choice be made not by the clinician alone or the patient alone, but through a carefully through-out process that involves both patient and physician. |
