The Importance of Recognising Symptoms
Early detection of diabetes is important for effective management and preventing complications. Certain symptoms of high blood sugar levels often go unnoticed or are mistaken for other conditions. For instance, some symptoms overlap with those of menopause, making it challenging to identify the underlying cause without proper testing.

Don’t Ignore These Symptoms:

- Sleep Issues: If you're experiencing difficulties sleeping, it could be related to diabetes affecting your sleep patterns.

- Fatigue: Feeling constantly tired is a common symptom, as diabetes impacts your body's energy levels.

- Mood Changes: Experiencing unexplained mood swings? Diabetes can affect your moods due to the highs and lows of blood sugar levels.

- Weight Gain: Insulin resistance, a precursor to diabetes, can lead to unexpected weight gain.

- Frequent Urination: An increase in urination can indicate high blood glucose levels, prompting the body to eliminate excess sugar.

- Yeast Infections: Individuals with diabetes may experience frequent yeast infections due to elevated sugar levels.
