What are causes, symptoms, signs and treatment for diabetes?

Exact cause is unknown but most appreciated hypothesis is either low insulin or insulin resistance due to genetic +/- environmental factors. Symptoms and signs include increased thirst, extreme hunger, unexplained weight loss, frequent urination, fatigue, irritability, blurred vision, slow healing wounds, presence of ketones in urine, fruity odour and frequent infections.Treatment is either tablets or insulin to control blood sugar levels along with life style modifications (Diet + exercise).

I'm a 26-year-old guy thinking about transitioning to female and I'm not quite sure where to start. How do I go about getting estrogen, and how much does it usually cost? Are there things I should be prepared for while going through this process?

ideally an endocrinologist or a gender-affirming clinic, for guidance on hormone replacement therapy (HRT), including estrogen; they will assess your overall health, provide personalized advice, and prescribe medication if necessary; costs vary depending on location, insurance, and specific treatments, but expect around $30-100 per month for estrogen therapy; be prepared for regular monitoring, potential side effects, and emotional changes as you begin your transition journey.
