Do pregnant women suffer from diabetes during pregnancy1

  Pregnant women are very likely to suffer from gestational diabetes. About 20 to 30 percent of pregnant women are likely to suffer from gestational diabetes. This is because there are many reasons for pregnant women suffering from gestational diabetes. One reason is that pregnant women do not develop good eating habits during pregnancy. Eating foods with high sugar content for a long time will lead to excessive sugar accumulation in the body, which will lead to increased blood sugar. If blood sugar is at a high level for a long time, it is easy to cause gestational diabetes.

  The second reason is that with the increase of pregnancy weeks, pregnant women will become more and more bulky, and their activity will gradually decrease, which will not be conducive to the consumption of sugar, and will also cause pregnancy diabetes. The third reason is that pregnant women who are over 35 years old at the time of pregnancy, or who have suffered from diabetes before pregnancy, or who have a family history of diabetes, maternal genetic history of diabetes, etc., will increase the risk of pregnancy diabetes.

  Cause 4: Pregnant women who gain too much weight during pregnancy, or suffer from polycystic ovary syndrome, are carriers of hepatitis B virus, or suffered from pregnancy diabetes during the last pregnancy will increase the risk of pregnancy diabetes. Therefore, fasting blood glucose test is required during pregnancy. If blood glucose rises and there is a high risk, further glucose tolerance test should be conducted. Once pregnancy diabetes is diagnosed, insulin or hypoglycemic drugs should be used under the guidance of the doctor to control.
