Rezumat: In last 50 years the prevalence of diabetes mellitus
has increased dramatically worldwide, resulting in
more and more women of reproductive age being
affected by either type 1 or type 2 diabetes. Women
with diabetes have a higher risk for complications
during pregnancy compared to women without
diabetes and the current studies indicate that the risk
of an unwanted pregnancy is higher then the risks of
hormonal contraception. Data from recent studies
reported no significant effects on glycemic control and
microvascular complications. Thus, oestroprogestative
pills is now recognized as a safe and effective option for
women with type 1 diabetes without complications.
For women with type 2 diabetes will be recommended
with caution, due to frequent association with
obesity and vascular risk, which increase both the
thromboembolic and arterial risk. Progestogen
contraceptive and non-hormonal methods are
best suited for the patient with diabetes. Cuvinte cheie: diabetes, pregnant, contraceptive
