Article Gender Differences in Living with Diabetes Mellitus
Dear Umaramani
Well I see more ladies coming for diabetes testing than males though my population may be different from yours. While the effect of estrogen seems protective against various cardiovascular related conditions including type-2 diabetes mellitus. However, association poor quality life like intake of unhealthy life styles with intake of junk food and inactivity reduces this protective effect.
Coming to your question, the literature search as I did provided me with mixed data. The data also suggest variation related to race, region and living standards of any community.
The study below shows no gender differences once confounders like exercise and life quality was equalized among the data set.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30129517. (Link)
However, another as references below suggests higher prevalence among females (Attached)
Similarly another article suggests higher prevalence among females

So I guess Umaramani a study may be needed especially to address the real prevalence among your specific study cohort.

Dear Dr Sikandar
thank you very much for your valuable suggestion and discussion.
I go through some literature and agree with lot of factors influence the type 2 diabetics.
For female population poly cystic ovary with obesity may also leads for type 2 diabetics that is the one additional factor when compare to the male population.
Thank you
