•  High amounts of glucose in the urine can cause increased urine output and lead to dehydration.
   
• Dehydration causes increased thirst and water consumption.
  
  
• A relative or absolute insulin deficiency eventually leads to weight loss despite an increase in appetite.
  
  
• Patients with diabetes are prone to developing infections of the bladder, skin, and vaginal areas.
