Pregnancy is a time of great change for a lady’s physique. Hormones fluctuate, power ranges shift and new challenges come up. One such problem that some ladies face is gestational diabetes, a situation the place blood sugar ranges develop into elevated throughout being pregnant.
"In pregnancy, many things are changing in a woman’s body. Her hormones are changing, and that’s a lot of what leads to the initial nausea and vomiting and fatigue of pregnancy. These same hormonal shifts can also impact glucose control, leading to gestational diabetes in some women," says Dr. Summer Allen, a Mayo Clinic household medication doctor who gives prenatal care.
