Diabetes may be well known, but little attention is paid to its particular link to gender. This link, in fact, affects disease prevention, symptoms and management.
Men and women are at different starting points when it comes to risk. Men tend to rise insulin resistance after middle-aged, well-paid, and abdominal obesity becomes a diabetes mellitus, with high stress and agitation. In the case of women, the hormonal hormonal “climbs” during pregnancy and menopause. Placental hormonal hormones are disrupted during pregnancy, with approximately 2-10 per cent of the mothers-to-be suffering from gestational diabetes, while the post-partum period is partially abated, but the risk is buried; menopausal estrogen cliffs fall, fats accumulate, metabolic imbalances and the rate of disease increases.
There are also “small differences” between the sexes in the symptoms. Men suffer from pre-diabetes irritation, thirst and blurred vision, as well as from neurovascular damage, which often results in initial alarms and delays in treatment due to shyness. In women, itching and repeated urinary system infections are common problems, arising from high blood sugar, high mood fluctuations and a vicious circle of depression and anxiety in blood sugar fluctuations, more evident than men.
There is a gender perspective in the management of treatment. Drug responses are gender-differentiated, for example, when some of the drugs help women to become insulin, they can leave sodium in the man and increase the heart burden; while sugar is also reduced to women because of physiology and menopause hormonal fluctuations, the blood sugar appears to be difficult to tame and requires more frequent fine-tuning programmes. In the way of life, men must be paid for smoking and alcohol, and they must take care of menopause sleep, emotional adjustment and the loss of nutritionally balanced antibone.
Diabetes is not “unlike”. Knowledge of these differences, periodic medical screening, early prevention and management of life can be used to control blood sugar and protect the quality of life.
