75g Glucose Tolerance Test

Patient's question:

75g glucose tolerance test one hour after blood sugar 8.7 two hours after blood sugar 7.9 did not check fasting

Doctor's answer:

Hello, a normal person's fasting blood glucose is between 3.9~6.1, post-meal 2 hours should not exceed 7.8, and at any time should not exceed 11.1. You have high blood glucose due to pregnancy, which may be caused by multiple hormones produced during pregnancy leading to insulin antagonism or accelerated decomposition, thereby increasing blood glucose levels. After pregnancy and delivery, blood glucose may return to normal, but regular follow-up is necessary.
Advice: You can wait for a while before rechecking your blood glucose. If it remains high, consider it as gestational diabetes. It is recommended that you consult a physician in the endocrinology department. Rest well, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables rich in dietary fiber to slow down glucose absorption, reduce intake of greasy and spicy foods, have more meals with smaller portions, engage in appropriate exercise to consume excess blood glucose, quit smoking and alcohol, and regularly follow up on your blood glucose. If any issues arise, seek medical attention promptly.
Wishing you good health!
