Hello sir/madam ,

Insulin is natural way to achieving normal blood sugar levels. Human pancreas secrete insulin which keeps a check on blood sugar levels.
It is often an important part of diabetes treatment.
If you have type 1 diabetes, insulin therapy replaces the insulin your body is unable to produce. Insulin therapy may also be started in type 2 diabetes and gestational diabetes when other measures fail.

If your doctor wants to start you on insulin you should take his advice seriously.

Hope you are satisfied
