  4. What is Monogenic Diabetes? Find it here: This form of diabetes is rare as it is the result of a change in one gene. Therefore, it’s pretty obvious that monogenic diabetes runs from generation to generation as it’s genetically inherited. Apart from genetical reasons, poor diet, fewer body movements, and overindulging can make you most likely to get this disease. Monogenic Diabetes generally has two forms that can affect you- NDM i.e. Neonatal diabetes mellitus (caused by changes in KCNJ11, ABCC8, or INS genes) & MODY i.e. Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (caused by changes in HNF1A or GCK genes). MODY can have mild or negative symptoms, which makes its pre-diagnose difficult. If you have GCK-MODY, it can be treated by a few dietary changes in your food intake with the consultation of specialists at University of Chicago medical center.

  5. How to Diagnose Monogenic Diabetes? The two forms of monogenic diabetes have different symptoms. Some symptoms of NDM are laziness, repeated urination, abrupt weight loss, sugary or heavy breath, fatigue, and unconsciousness. NDM is lifelong diseases and you have to live on medicines for the entire life. MODY has its own symptoms, which include increased sugar level in blood after eight hours fasting, weight gain, getting thirsty frequently, sluggish healing, and prone to infections. Depending on the medical condition, some people don’t require treatment while some might need regular medicine intake to make more insulin in the body.

The human body has 20,000 to 25,000 protein-cryptogram genes out of which only one gene is mutated. Each gene is tested for the occurrence or expected to occur monogenic on it. Moreover, prenatal testing is the monogenic diabetes study performed on unborn babies as either of the parents can transfer changed gene to the baby. In fact, the specialist might suggest you for whole family DNA analysis as monogenic diabetes can be transferred to the successors as well. Genetic analysis is necessary to treat Type-1 and Type-2 diabetes. A regular visit to the doctor and whole body checkup would eliminate the chances of the situation getting worst.
