About Insulin Resistance

Insulin resistance is not a single medical procedure but a complex metabolic condition diagnosed and managed by an endocrinologist. It refers to a state where the body's cells do not respond effectively to the hormone insulin, leading to elevated blood sugar levels and forcing the pancreas to produce more insulin. An endocrinologist's role involves a comprehensive diagnostic workup, including detailed blood tests like fasting insulin, glucose tolerance tests, and HbA1c, to confirm the condition. Management is a personalized, long-term strategy focused on lifestyle interventions, primarily diet and exercise, and may include medications like metformin or newer agents to improve insulin sensitivity. This proactive management is crucial for preventing the progression to Type 2 diabetes and associated cardiovascular complications.
