3. Frequent infections
Diabetes is believed to be immuno-suppressed; this means that people who have high glucose levels are mostly vulnerable to numerous types of infections like fungal infection and yeast infection as both bacteria and fungi mostly flourish in environments that are sugar-rich.
High sugar levels in the genital region and in the urine make perfect breeding grounds for yeast and bacteria that causes diabetes. You should show concern if you have had recurrent infections. Any time you visit a doctor complaining of recurring infections, the first thing he/she does is carry out a diabetes test. Even women who complains of urinary tract infections in the doctors office will likely get checked for diabetes.
