Diabetes is a number of diseases that involve problems with the hormone insulin. There is no cure for diabetes.

There are three major types of diabetes: type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and gestational diabetes.

Diabetes insipidus causes you to have an almost unquenchable thirst and your body to make a lot of urine.

Gestational DI, or gestagenic diabetes insipidus, is a rare disorder that happens in pregnancy, usually in the third trimester.

The warning signs of diabetes can be so mild that you don't notice them. That's especially true of type 2 diabetes.

Diabetes diagnostic tests include a fasting plasma glucose test, oral glucose tolerance test, or random plasma glucose test.

An oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) shows how well your body handles sugar from foods.

The hemoglobin A1c test is an important blood test that shows how well your diabetes is being controlled.

You cannot treat diabetes on your own. Your doctor will help you make a diabetes treatment plan that is right for you.

Different doctors can help you manage different aspects of your diabetes. Find out who you need on your team.

Many forms of insulin treat diabetes, including rapid-acting, short-acting, intermediate-acting, long-acting, and pre-mixed.

Toujeo is an injectable insulin medication for the treatment of diabetes (type 1 or type 2) in people who are 6 years old and older. It is a long-acting form of insulin, which allows it to last for a long time in the body to help control blood sugars.

Blood sugar control is at the center of any diabetes treatment plan. High blood sugar, or hyperglycemia, is a major concern.

People with diabetes get hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) when their bodies don't have enough sugar to use as fuel.

Continuous glucose monitors are FDA-approved systems that track your blood sugar levels day and night.

Most people with diabetes need to check their glucose levels regularly. The results help you and your doctor manage those levels.

Nerve pain caused by diabetes, known as diabetic peripheral neuropathy, can be severe, constant, and hard to treat.

Skin conditions related to diabetes are common. Most can be successfully treated before they turn into a serious problem.

Diabetic nephropathy -- kidney disease that results from diabetes -- is the No. 1 cause of kidney failure.

Most infections in people with diabetes can be treated. But you have to be able to spot the symptoms. Learn what to look for.
