What happens to insulin needs across the menstrual cycle? 🩸

Together with , we looked at real-world data from 77 adults with type 1 diabetes using automated insulin delivery: 380 cycles and 10,000+ days of glucose, insulin, carb, and cycle data.

The results, now published in Diabetes Care, confirm what many people with periods and T1D have long suspected from lived experience. See what we found in the infographic. 👇

Thank you to everyone who shared their data. The study also raised new questions, especially how much these patterns vary from person to person. Two new studies are building on this work:

Women living with diabetes have always managed more than glucose.

Hormonal shifts. Sleep. Menstrual cycles. Real life.

This International Women’s Day, we’re highlighting work that connects physiology and diabetes — with partners like Diabetes Center Berne, ŌURA, and the Milken Institute’s Women’s Health Network — to help close a long-standing research gap.

A special thank you to the participants in our study with the Diabetes Center Berne, and to the many women living with type 1 diabetes who step forward to participate in research. The extra time, data, and lived experience you share are what move the field toward better care.
