[|Human|] Yes, I have had Type 2 diabetes for over ten years... take pills - no insulin but lately I have been extremely thirsty and I urinate more than I ever have.... I also have had 3 yeast infections since Dec. 2016 (I am a 61 year old divorced woman- no sexual activity) and wondered if this is a result of my Diabetes?
[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor. I have read your question completely and understand your concerns. Excessive thirst, frequent urination and fungal infections can all occur in a diabetic patient if their blood glucose is not well controlled. For good diabetes control, fasting blood glucose should be less than 110, 2 hour post radial should be less than 160-170 and HbA1C which is there 3-month average blood glucose should be around 6.5-7% (depending on the age, and any other medical complications). You could get the above blood tests done and consult your doctor. If your blood glucose is in the normal, you still need to see your doctor to rule out other causes of your symptoms. I hope this answer has helped you Thank your Regards Chat Doctor.
