What is diabetology?

Diabetology is the medical discipline that deals with the metabolism of carbohydrates in the body and the prevention and treatment of diabetes. A specialist diabetologist assesses the risk factors for diabetes in cases of insulin resistance or suspected diabetes. Then, after general internal medicine tests, the diabetology outpatient clinic is where therapy is determined, blood glucose levels are adjusted and then monitored continuously.

What are the types of diabetes?

Type 1 diabetes

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas and causes insulin deficiency. The body's upset blood sugar levels cannot be reversed but can be corrected with the right treatment.

Type 2 diabetes

Type 2 diabetes is also known as insulin resistance. In this condition, the insulin produced by the body cannot keep blood sugar levels in balance. However, the condition can be improved with regular blood glucose monitoring, exercise, and diet. In some cases, medication and insulin therapy may be justified.

Gestational diabetes

Diabetes during pregnancy is very common. So-called gestational diabetes is caused by hormonal changes in the pregnant woman's body. The condition is usually only present during pregnancy. It needs to be treated with a strict diet and occasional insulin therapy.

Rare forms of diabetes

Rare forms of diabetes include so-called monogenic diabetes and pancreatogenic diabetes. The former may be caused by a rare genetic condition and the latter may develop as a complication of other diseases. Both types of diabetes can usually be treated with insulin therapy.
