Can I Marry to a person who is taking insulin since he was 4 years old. Now he is 29 years old, and he currently takes 4 insulin doses daily. Since he has been taking insulin for so many years, will his insulin dosage keep increasing in the future because the body's efficiency may decrease? Will this be a dangerous issue?

Yes, don’t worry about your marriage. One thing is correct that he has to continue taking insulin life long , but that won’t affect his body that much , so that you have to worry. You can go ahead and marry , no issues.

It is absolutely possible to marry someone who is on insulin. The fact that he has been taking insulin since childhood suggests he likely has Type 1 diabetes, a condition where the body cannot produce insulin. Taking insulin multiple times daily is standard and helps manage blood sugar effectively.
His insulin needs may vary over time based on factors like body weight, diet, activity level, and stress—not necessarily due to the body “wearing out.” With proper medical care, a healthy lifestyle, and regular follow-up, people with Type 1 diabetes can lead long, fulfilling lives, including marriage and family.
This is not a dangerous issue as long as his diabetes is well managed. Rather than focusing on the illness, consider how well he takes care of his health, as that’s what truly matters in a long-term relationship.

Not a dangerous issue but can become dangerous if he doesn’t take insulin on time and in required doses .
It is not mandatory to increase insulin dose with age
Everything depends on his diet,lifestyle and body’s response

You can marry him. He needs support and understandable partner. If the sugar levels are under control, need not worry.
