Gestational Diabetes

Hyperglycaemia, which is first detected during pregnancy, is also known as gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Although it can occur anytime during pregnancy, GDM generally affects pregnant women during the 2nd and 3rd trimesters. According to the American Diabetes Association (ADA), GDM complicates 7% in all pregnancies.

Treatment for gestational diabetes aims to keep blood glucose levels equivalent to those of pregnant women who don't have gestational diabetes. The treatment always includes special meal plans and scheduled physical activity, and it may also include daily blood glucose testing and insulin injections.
