I am new to this site having been diagnosed 5 months ago can any of you ladies tell me if you get keytones present when your monthly cycle is around but, blood sugars are all single figures Thanks for your help
 
Hello and welcome, I get high sugars a week before and a few days into period so have to increase insulin. I haven't noticed that I get ketones though.
 
Like riri, I have high sugars (sometimes into the 20's) & need more insulin (30% extra)

I've only ever once had ketones during my period but I had an infection & was on anti biotics.

It could be starvation ketones if they are on waking?
