Understanding the menstrual cycle and type 1

Researchers at the University of Bristol are looking to recruit people aged 18 to 40 who experience menstruation, live with type 1 diabetes, and use an insulin pump to take part in a study. The research aims to better understand how insulin sensitivity and insulin requirements change throughout the menstrual cycle, with the hope of supporting more personalised diabetes care.

Taking part involves regularly uploading diabetes data, wearing a Garmin activity tracker provided by the research team, completing ovulation tests, and filling in short questionnaires about nutrition, insulin use, and other relevant factors.
