What is the honeymoon phase of diabetes

Diabetes honeymoon period is a treatment phenomenon for diabetic patients. After type 1 diabetic patients pass short-term insulin treatment, some of them can have better blood sugar control without any medication, and this period can be maintained for 3-6 months, which is clinically called honeymoon period. Meanwhile, 80% of type 2 diabetic patients can still have their blood glucose controlled in the normal range without medication after short-term intensive treatment, which is called the honeymoon period for about 3-6 months or within 5 years. The honeymoon period is suitable for patients with initial onset of diabetes. After receiving intensive insulin therapy, most patients can restore the function of the pancreas itself and achieve the goal of not needing medication, but the principles of diabetes honeymoon period treatment still follow the five carriages.
