    CATAMENIAL DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS
    (Acta Endocrinologica Foundation, 2022) Hekimsoy Z.; Eniseler E.B.; Erdem N.; Ozdemir N.
    Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a common medical emergency situation. In rare cases, glycemic changes associated with the menstrual cycle may create a predisposing factor for DKA. In the absence of facilitating factors that may cause DKA, catamenial DKA should be considered. In the patients with catamenial DKA, increasing the insulin dose 1-2 days before menstruation may prevent the development of hyperglycemia or DKA associated with menstrual cycle. In this study, we present a 21-year-old female with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM) that recurrently applied to our hospital due to DKA a few days prior to menstrual bleeding. © 2022, Acta Endocrinologica Foundation.
