Type 2 diabetes mainly develops due to a combination of genetic and lifestyle factors that affect how your body manages blood sugar.

🩺 Genetic Factors

A family history of diabetes increases your risk because certain genes can affect how your body produces and uses insulin.

🩺 Lifestyle Factors

Poor diet, lack of physical activity, and excess body weight, especially around the abdomen, are major contributors that can lead to type 2 diabetes.

🩺 Insulin Resistance

In this condition, your body's cells become less responsive to insulin, making it harder to control blood sugar levels effectively.

🩺 Other Risk Factors

Age, certain ethnic backgrounds, and medical conditions like high blood pressure or abnormal cholesterol levels can also raise the risk.

It’s important to consult an endocrinologist or a diabetologist for personalized evaluation and management.
