question for the women

[coltsfan715]

I would venture to say that the small or non existant breast issue is related to your weight and nutrition. Also yes the irregular periods can be aggravated by out of control blood sugars. It can also be caused by changing hormones or just other overall CF issues I think.

I had issues with my breast size right after I was diagnosed with diabetes and up until recently when I started gaining weight. I lost about 20 lbs before they diagnosed my with CFRD and it all came from my chest lol. I was never able to gain the weight back until I had my transplant this past year and since then I am up to 125 and am happier with my body.

I also wanted to put this out there. With CFRD if it is uncontrolled it can actually cause you alot of problems with your breathing. It can make you more short of breath it can increase inflammation, make you cough more, make you more fatigued and so on. It really is in your best interest - not just for the period and breast issue - to try and get your sugars under control.

Take Care,
Lindsey

Great advice from everyone. I will also put in my two cents. Im very small myself. Nutrition is mostly my situation but also Genetics. My mom and sister were also very small. I understand what you are saying and I wouldn't feel shy about bringing it upto your doctor or GYN in case there are any other reasons.

I also liked what Coltsfan had to say. Amen to that. Taking care of the diabetes sugars has a lot to do with the lungs and overall care of our CF.

It is probably not much to do with not taking care of yourself as it is genetics. But it is important to talk about with your physician so you feel better.

Water Bras are a good thing I here.
There are also realistic like booby inserts that you can put in your bra so you fill your dresses or tops out more . It's temporary but can be fun in the meantime.

thanks allot girls!! I weigh around 104lbs... and am 5'3". this is probably the most i have weighed in years. back in the day like when i was in HS i weighed at my highest 115. But i never took care of myself back then. So now that i am taking care of myself allot more hopefully i can be up to the weight that they want me at around 106 actually he wants me at 110 but i told him little steps for me! I am getting way better with taking insulin... my A1C is 6.8 which is the beset it has ever been.. i usually around 10!!! so hopefully it will start happening... thank you all again for your input~ and oh yah padded bras are my fav. my hubby calls them nipple protectors!! hahaha~~~ But maybe i will get some inserts.. sounds like it would help out a little!
