My partner has Type 1 diabetes (the insulin dependent -non lifestyle dependent sort) and we are planning on having a child. Is this hereditary and is there anything that can be done to stop or lower the chances of it being passed down?
Amount the various factors for Diabetes Type 1, hereditary reasons are also one [...]

Type I- NO
Type II-YES – a combination of genetics and insulin resistance causes the pancreas to slow production of insulin and sometimes stop [...]

It doesn’t turn into Diabetes Type 1, but you could have diabetes type II which eventually requires insulin. Don’t feel badly if this happens, since it is sometimes a natural progression of Diabetes. As one gets older, the pancreatic islet cells make less and less insulin and sometimes people then require insulin shots [...]
