    Diabetes occurs when your blood sugar (glucose) levels become too high. This can happen when your body doesn't produce enough insulin (Type 1 diabetes) or when it can't effectively use the insulin it produces (Type 2 diabetes). Elevated blood sugar levels can lead to various health problems, so it's essential to monitor and manage diabetes with the help of a healthcare provider.

    What exactly causes diabetes?

    Dr. ANUVITHA KAMATH

    MBBS · 3 years of exp

    Diabetes mellitus is a condition, where there is increased blood sugar levels of more than 140mg/dl. It can be either due to less insulin production or increased insulin resistance by the fat cells. There are 2 types of diabetes mellitus. The difference between type 1 and type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is that type 1 is mostly a genetic disorder where there are antibodies against the insulin. This results in the destruction of insulin leading to excess blood sugar levels. It is mostly a disease seen in childhood whereas type 2 Diabetes mellitus, is mostly occurring due to lifestyle disorders. Excess body fat and increased sugar intake result in insulin resistance in the body. This is seen mostly after 40 years of age. The initial treatment depends upon oral hypoglycemic drugs, and only in severe uncontrolled cases, insulin will be required.
