Elevated blood glucose is common to gestational, type 1, and type 2 diabetes. While reduced insulin production is a characteristic of type 1 diabetes, and insulin resistance is a characteristic of type 2 diabetes, elevated blood glucose is a common symptom of all three types. Rapid disease onset is not common to all three types - gestational diabetes is a temporary condition that develops during pregnancy, whereas type 1 and type 2 diabetes typically have a slow progression. Being overweight or obese is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes, but not necessarily for gestational or type 1 diabetes.
