If your pump basal suddenly feels unpredictable—overnight lows, stubborn morning highs, or insulin resistance that seems to appear out of nowhere—you’re not failing, and you’re not imagining it.
In Part 2 of this two-part series, I’m breaking down basal insulin challenges for pump users in perimenopause and midlife. Hormonal shifts can change insulin sensitivity hour by hour, and pump settings that once worked may suddenly stop making sense.
In this episode, we cover:
Why estrogen, progesterone, and cortisol impact pump basal rates
Common midlife basal patterns I see in pump users
When to adjust overnight vs daytime basal
How insulin resistance shows up differently after 40
Why pattern tracking matters more than single “bad days”
How to approach changes slowly and safely during this stage of life
🎧 Missed Part 1?
Episode 140 focuses on basal insulin challenges for women on multiple daily injections (MDI).
