    Glossary Increased Insulin Requirement

    need for more insulin to control blood sugar levels

    Increased Insulin Requirement refers to the need for a higher dose of insulin to maintain normal blood sugar levels. This can occur due to various factors such as stress, illness, hormonal changes, or insulin resistance, where the body's cells become less responsive to insulin. For individuals with diabetes, this means they may need to adjust their insulin dosage to effectively manage their condition.
