What are the Symptoms of Type 2 Diabetes?

Type 2 diabetes has a host of symptoms beyond the more commonly known symptoms, like weight gain and increased thirst. If you’re experiencing symptoms of prediabetes or type 2 diabetes, reach out to your doctor. They can schedule some labs to see if your blood glucose is elevated.

Type 2 diabetes symptoms include:

• Fatigue
• Increased thirst and dry mouth
• Increased urination
• Frequent vaginal or urinary infections
• Erectile dysfunction
• Increased hunger
• Neuropathy (numbness, tingling in feet and hands)
• Blurred vision
• Slow-healing sores or frequent infections
• Weight gain

It is important to keep an eye out for symptoms of prediabetes so you can take action before it progresses to type 2 diabetes.

Prediabetes symptoms include:

• Feeling tired and hungry all the time
• Poor sleep
• Difficulty focusing
• Neuropathy (numbness, tingling in feet and hands)
• Skin darkens in the neck, armpits, and skin folds
• Developing many small skin tags
• Weight gain, particularly around the waist
