This maybe be an unusual question to ask. I am considering having a hair transplant. I am 63 and have diabetes type 2. However, my initial research has indicated it would not be safe to do so until my sugar levels are under control. My question is, has anybody, with diabetes, undertaken a hair transplant ? Replies appreciated. Thank you.

When you say focussing on your diet, does that mean you've been advised to limit the amount of carbohydrate you eat or drink? If not that - what?

With the medication that you have just had prescribed you need to make sure you drink plenty as otherwise you may become dehydrated as it works by removing glucose from the body via urine so frequent loo visits are can be a side effect.
Many find a low carb approach successful, that being suggested as less than 130g per day so it sounds as if you have made some changes to reduce your carbs.
