It can be characterized into three types:

●  Type 1 diabetes: pancreas fails to produce enough insulin due to the loss of beta cells.
Type 1 diabetes known as insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. (loss of beta cells is caused by an autoimmune disease.)

●  Type 2 diabetes: it starts with insulin resistance, in type 2 diabetes cells fail to respond to insulin. type 2 diabetes also known as noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.

●  Gestational diabetes occurs when pregnant women without a previous history of diabetes develop high blood sugar levels.

Causes:

some reason loss of insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreas, leads to insulin deficiency. It can occur at any age and is diagnosed during adulthood.
