Study finds Type 2 diabetes poses different health risks for men and women
A new study reveals that Type 2 diabetes affects men and women differently in terms of associated health risks. Women are more likely to develop mental health complications following a diabetes diagnosis, whereas men face higher risks of heart and kidney problems. Hypertension emerges as a shared complication for both sexes after developing the condition. The study also found that patients who develop mental health issues post-diagnosis tend to have shorter lifespans. Researchers are calling for sex-specific approaches to diabetes care and health monitoring based on these findings.
