25 with diabetes type 2.
I am a 25 year old girl with pcos, newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. I am obese. I got married 6 months ago. But before 6 months my blood sugar used to be low all the time. I was having 99 after breakfast. But when i checked 3 days ago, fasting sugar was 182 and rbs was 270. I was shocked and devastated. So i started to drink bitter juices and started working out, in two days my fasting sugar came to 152 and ppbs came to 213. Hba1c is 8.9. Shud i take diabetes medicines?

8.9 hba1c is definitely high for you, however there is nothing to worry as it can be controlled down to normal levels. As you mention that you also have PCOS, diet and lifestyle measures are strongly recommended for you. Optimize your weight if it is not so, and to decide which treatment plan is best for you, it is suggested to Visit a Diabetologist in person.
