    Yes. Your period is also governed by a major hormonal shift, so it can further the hormonal chaos that causes diabetes II.

    Yes, it is known that blood sugar levels can fluctuate during your period (along with your mood), but the cause hasn't been clearly determined. The common finding is that menstruation’s affect on blood sugar control is varied depending on the individual. As a result, blood sugar testing during this time is the only way to know how it affects that particular woman’s blood sugar.Most likely, it's the fluctuating hormones that cause changes in blood sugar.

    No because your body doesn't generate sugar.
