🩺 Types of Diabetes — Do You Know the Difference?
Diabetes isn't one-size-fits-all. There are 3 main types, and understanding each one matters. 👇
🔵 Type 1 Diabetes — Autoimmune Disease
The immune system attacks insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. Little to no insulin is made. Often diagnosed in young people.
🟠 Type 2 Diabetes — Insulin Resistance
The body's cells resist insulin action. Glucose builds up in the blood. Linked to lifestyle, obesity, and age.
🩷 Gestational Diabetes — Pregnancy Complication
Hormonal shifts during pregnancy cause insulin resistance. Usually resolves after birth — but increases Type 2 risk later for both mother and child.
💡 Same name. Very different causes and management.
📌 Save this for your next exam or clinical rotation!
