Diabetes: how to catch it early and keep it under control

Diabetes often develops silently. We explain how to recognize the symptoms in time, which tests to take, and where to get help in Tashkent.

Diabetes: a disease you cannot ignore

Diabetes is a metabolic disorder in which blood glucose levels become too high. In the early stages, the disease may show no signs at all, and the symptoms are often dismissed as fatigue or stress.

Early signs of diabetes that are easy to miss

  • dry mouth
  • constant thirst
  • frequent urination
  • rapid fatigue
  • blurred vision
  • slow wound healing
  • sudden weight loss or, conversely, weight gain

Who is at risk?

  • People who are overweight
  • Those with a hereditary predisposition
  • Women who had gestational diabetes
  • People with hypertension and high cholesterol
  • Those who lead a sedentary lifestyle

What to do if you suspect diabetes?

If you notice even 2–3 symptoms, you should take a fasting glucose test, an oral glucose tolerance test, and a glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) test. These tests will accurately show whether you have diabetes or prediabetes.
