Abstract

Diabetes affects many women of reproductive age. Choice of contraceptive method is essential in order to combine efficacy and the patient's wishes, while taking into account the potential side effects. In this review, we will discuss the different methods available for women with diabetes, focusing the discussion on their metabolic and general effects. We will not discuss the side effects and contraindications common to all women, whether they have diabetes or not. The objective is to try to identify an algorithm to help in the decision to choose the most suitable contraceptive method for women with type 1 or type 2 diabetes.
