    Clear next steps so you know exactly what to do.

T1D Progression

T1D develops in stages, not all at once.

Stage 1: Silent onset

Autoantibodies present, blood sugar normal. No symptoms. This is when screening catches T1D, months or years before diagnosis.

Autoimmune T1D can be detected months or years before symptoms appear. Screening finds it at Stage 1 or 2, before insulin dependence begins.

Why screening changes the outcome

The earlier T1D is found, the more options you have.

40%
of people have no idea they have T1D until a life-threatening hospitalization
80%
of people experience diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) at diagnosis when T1D is caught at Stage 3
68%
of adults with T1D who didn't screen say they regret not taking an autoantibody test
93%
of caregivers wish they had learned about their child's risk before diagnosis
50%
of adults with T1D spent at least $5,000 on emergency care before or during diagnosis

Benefits

What early detection gives you.

Time to prepare

Early detection gives you and your family months or years to prepare, ask questions, and adjust before insulin dependence starts, instead of learning everything in an emergency room.

Lower risk of DKA

Catching T1D at Stage 1 or 2 significantly lowers the chance of diabetic ketoacidosis at diagnosis, a serious and preventable complication.

Delay T1D diagnosis

Early detection can qualify you for Tzield, a FDA approved therapy that can prevent T1D in 60% of cases.

Almost all adults with T1D say knowing sooner would have made them feel more in control of their health.

Symptoms

Know what to watch for.

These symptoms can appear when Type 1 diabetes is progressing toward diagnosis. Tap any that sound familiar.

Select any symptoms you or a loved one are experiencing.

This is not a diagnostic tool. Only a doctor and a blood test can confirm T1D risk.

Screening

Who should get screened?

T1D has a strong family risk factor. If you or a relative has T1D, screening relatives, especially children, can catch it early. But family history isn't required. 90% of people diagnosed with T1D have no family history at all, so it's never too early to ask a doctor about screening, regardless of your background.
