Type One Diabetes From Taking Bendectin
UpdatedIn 1970 I took Bendectin for morning sickness. My daughter developed type one diabetes at age 7. I've read a lot of the post from 2011 but nothing more recent. Has anyone out there had this health issue?

There have been many reports of health problems in children whose mother's took this medication back then.
However, as far as I know, there has actually been no definitive proof as to what problems it did, or didn't cause.

Did she suffer any other health problems? Have you?
I was given Debendox for morning sickness in 1978 - my daughter was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes when she was 2 years old. At 14 she was diagnosed with under active thyroid and in 2012 after suffering repeated bouts of sickness which she was diagnosed with Addisons disease. There is no trace of any of these conditions within her maternal or paternal families.
My mum took debendox while pregnant with me and i have been diagnosed with pre type 2 diabetes/insulin resitence, pcos and a hypo thyroid as well as vascular including artereo venous malformation - malformation of the artery in the brain. Nobody knows where i got this from or the diabetes. Though there is a family history of thyroid problems not as bad as mine.
