Diabetes

Diabetes is a chronic disease that occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin or when the body cannot use insulin effectively. There are three main types of diabetes: type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes.

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks and destroys the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas.

Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body does not produce enough insulin and/or when the body's cells do not respond properly to insulin (insulin resistance). This is the most common type of diabetes.

Gestational diabetes develops in some individuals during pregnancy, but it usually goes away after delivery.
