Gestational Diabetes: Causes, Complications, Diagnosis, and Prevention
Listen to
Gestational diabetes is a condition classified by elevated blood sugar levels that grow during pregnancy and typically resolve after childbirth. It originates when the body cannot produce enough insulin to match the elevated demands of pregnancy, leading to insulin resistance.
GDM often presents without noticeable symptoms but can lead to complications such as pre-eclampsia, increased likelihood of cesarean delivery, and macrosomia (more significant than average birth weight) in infants. Managing gestational diabetes involves regularly monitoring blood sugar levels and administering insulin when necessary. In this episode of the Gestational Diabetes Podcast, we delve into what Gestational Diabetes is, its causes, risk factors, potential complications, and the latest advancements in treatment options.
Join the PACE Hospitals Podcast with Dr. Tripti Sharma, Endocrinologist (Adult & Paediatric), Physician, and Diabetologist at PACE Hospitals, Hitech City, Hyderabad, India, as we explore Gestational Diabetes and its significant impact on health.
