Diabetes is one of the most common health concerns in India, and managing it effectively is crucial for a healthy life. For many patients, lifestyle changes and oral medications are not enough to control blood sugar. In such cases, insulin treatment, insulin therapy, or insulin injections become an essential part of care.
At Curis Life Multi-Specialty Clinic in Andheri West, our expert endocrinologist specializes in providing safe, effective, and personalized insulin management. With careful monitoring and a patient-friendly approach, we ensure your diabetes is controlled while improving your quality of life.
Why Insulin Treatment is Needed
Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas that helps regulate blood sugar. In diabetes, either the body doesn’t produce enough insulin (Type 1 Diabetes) or it cannot use insulin effectively (Type 2 Diabetes).
You may require insulin injections if:
- You have Type 1 Diabetes (body cannot produce insulin).
- You have Type 2 Diabetes not controlled with tablets and lifestyle changes.
- You are pregnant and diagnosed with gestational diabetes.
- You experience very high blood sugar levels (HbA1c not improving with oral medicines).
- You are recovering from surgery, infection, or other medical conditions requiring temporary insulin support.
Types of Insulin Therapy
At Curis Life, our endocrinologist helps you choose the right insulin regimen based on your needs, lifestyle, and blood sugar pattern.
- Rapid-acting insulin – works within minutes, used before meals.
- Short-acting insulin – helps control blood sugar spikes after meals.
- Intermediate-acting insulin – provides longer coverage between meals.
- Long-acting insulin – maintains steady blood sugar control throughout the day.
- Premixed insulin – a combination of short and intermediate insulin for convenience.
We provide guidance on dosage, timing, and proper injection techniques to make treatment easier and more effective.
Causes of Poor Insulin Control
Many patients need insulin because of factors that worsen diabetes control:
- Genetic predisposition and family history
- Poor lifestyle habits (sedentary lifestyle, unhealthy diet)
- Hormonal imbalances and stress
- Obesity and metabolic syndrome
- Long-standing diabetes not controlled with medicines
- Pregnancy-related hormonal changes (gestational diabetes)
Symptoms of Uncontrolled Diabetes (When Insulin May Help)
- Frequent urination
- Excessive thirst
- Unexplained weight loss
- Fatigue and weakness
- Blurred vision
- Slow healing of wounds
- Recurrent infections
If you notice these symptoms despite taking medicines, insulin treatment may be necessary.
Diagnosis and Monitoring for Insulin Therapy
Before starting insulin, our endocrinologist conducts a thorough evaluation:
- Blood sugar tests (fasting, post-meal, random glucose)
- HbA1c test to assess 3-month average blood sugar
- Lipid profile to check cholesterol levels
- Kidney and liver function tests
- Eye and foot evaluations to assess complications
- Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) if required
