Can I Conceive At Age 36 With Controlled Diabetes ?

I am 36 yrs old have diabeties after my first delivery at age 30. I got my first baby after infertility treatment and had metformin tablets during pregnancy(for pcod). I had cesarian during 8th month. That time also my sugar level was normal. I became diabeties only after 4months of my delivery.Now I am using metformin 500mg 2 times ,but for the past 6months my sugar level is normal. My question is whether I can concieve another one without any risk.
