Secondary Diabetes is a form of diabetes that arises as a result of another medical condition or as a side effect of certain treatments. Unlike primary diabetes, which includes Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes that occur due to genetic and lifestyle factors, secondary diabetes is directly linked to external factors or other health issues. Conditions such as chronic pancreatitis, Cystic Fibrosis, or hormonal disorders like Cushing's Syndrome can impair the body’s ability to regulate blood sugar levels, leading to the development of secondary diabetes. Additionally, medications such as corticosteroids, which are often used to treat inflammatory conditions, can also trigger diabetes as a side effect. Managing secondary diabetes requires a comprehensive approach that addresses both the underlying condition and the diabetes itself. Treatment plans often involve a combination of medication, lifestyle changes, and monitoring. Managing the primary condition effectively is crucial because controlling the root cause can help alleviate or reduce the severity of secondary diabetes.
