Question
How to diagnose genetic diabetes in newborns?
Answer
Firstly, it is necessary to determine whether you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes. Based on the age of onset, you have type 2 diabetes. Generally, diabetes requires lifelong medication and requires prevention of complications associated with diabetes. As for your child, there is no need to check blood sugar levels at this time. If you wish to check, it is recommended to do so around the child’s first birthday.
