To donate ovules you have to put yourself in hormonal treatment, I doubt it is convenient to describe you to donate ovules, to which you set a minimum amount of progesterone, the glucose is put in 400 in a Pispas.

There is no contraindication to be a donor.

Organ donations usually depend on doctors' decisions, that is, they have to decide whether the organs that are going to be donated or not. And that they do at the time of death.

Having an insulin treatment can be a source of exclusion to donate blood although the last word is the transfusion centers.
Leaving aside that they accept or not someone's blood with diabetes I have never donated blood since I have diabetes, I am very sorry but it is hard for meComplication (small but complication) for someone with diabetes and insulin treatment.

Regarding the donation of organs:
Every transplant has an autoimmune problem in the background (unless it is a self -transplant where the recipient and the donor are the same person, but that is a very particular case ...) problem that makes the receiver need medication to be immunosuppressedrest of your life (if Immunodepressants stop taking the organs or transplanted organs end up being rejected) on the other hand a person who has type 1 diabetes has an autoimmune disease, the fact of using organs of a person who has type 1 diabetesIt makes the autoimmune problem even greater (autoimmune problem of every transplant + particular autoimmune problem) the last word is the transplant team but the fact of having diabetes I do not think to help to give green light, quite the opposite.

Clinical evaluation of the organ donor.

The selection of a corpse donor is a complex and multidisciplinary procedure that involves intensivist doctors, transplant coordinators, immunologists, pathologists, nephrologists and many other specialists involved or not in transplant programs.

In general, all those bodies of brain death by cranioesephalic trauma, stroke, cerebral anoxia or non -metastatizing brain tumors are considered donors.

The donor evaluation has two objectives:

Discard any donor transmissible disease

· Make a functional and morphological assessment of the organs to be transplanted.

(...)

II.B.Validation criteria depending on the organ to transplant

1.General criteria of exclusion .

1.1.Coma of unknown cause.

1.2.Transmissible infectious pathology: AC HIV+, sepsis with hemodynamic impact.

1.3.Risk groups: prostitution, prison, drug addiction I.V.

1.4.Cancer (except skin and some primitive CNS or definitely cured)

1.5.Hematological diseases of unknown cause

1.6.Neurological diseases of unknown or degenerative cause.

1.7.Collagenosis

1.8.Generalized arteriosclerosis

1.9.Arterial hypertension or diabetes with serious visceral impact

1.10.Anencephals

(...)

That said ... the last word is the transplant team but having diabetes I do not think it helps to give a green light to be donor of organs.

I would personally worry more than having diabetes was a reason for exclusion to be a receiver ...

I can tell you, that a couple of years or so ago, taking advantage of the fact that a relative was admitted to a hospital, I went with my cousin to the plant where blood donations were made. My premium, donated without problems, sinceHe has no illness, and I, commenting that it was diabetics, asked me what guy was, and if it was insulin -dependent.
As for the donation of organs ... I do not know, I am not very informed, I imagine that as long as the organ is not damaged there would be no problem, but I don't know for sure. I took out the donor card of organs,for the day that the espiche, who donate my organs (if possible), since in the hereafter, I will not need them :))

Although it is not too common, patients with diabetes already have a long trajectory as organ receptors, especially of double kidney and pancreas transplants.

The law mentioned by TNT is ambiguous ... I imagine that they expressly made it so to be able to leave the recipients of the organs, according to gravity and compatibility.

Roxio, if you are type 1 diabetics and you inject insulin, the answer is no, they don't leave you directly.

Hi guys.
I regret to tell you definitely.
I was just yesterday in the doctor making a review of the view and while I waited for a woman to be visited by volunteers to donate since I commented that the blood banks were low.

Take the opportunity to ask and it was very clear in your response.
-If you are type 2, take pills, you can donate.If you are an independent insulin you can't.

I felt a little bad because I always donated but on the other hand I thought, if everyone who could donate half that I would donate leftover.:-)

Hugs.Quim

What I don't know is whether it will be the same when donating organs, or for example, medulla ... or a kidney or something ... I don't know!

In this same thread, TNT has posted this issue ...

Having diabetes is not precisely a point in favor to donate, obviously.Although the legislation is unclear and imagine it will depend on each situation and each donor.

I understand that we cannot donate blood, no longer because of the controls, but for blood insulin.I am not very sure, but my mother has always been a donor, and when I arrived at 18 I wanted to donate.In principle they told me no, because I also have hypothyroidism, and at the months with the debut of diabetes they said flatly that no, although they did not give me any explanation ... the best to approach your health center, or to the nearest hospital, maybe they give you explanations, or even a solution to be able to donate.I would personally love to be able to do it ... :?
