How to Confirm Gestational Diabetes

Patient's question:

I am 3 months pregnant, my fasting blood glucose is 4.98, and my one-hour post-meal blood glucose is 10.88. My hemoglobin A1c and C-peptide tests, as well as serum insulin levels, are all normal. There are no abnormalities in my body. Could this be diagnosed as gestational diabetes? I have not been treated for it. I have not been treated for it.

Doctor's answer:

Hello friend, further tests can now be conducted, and the possibility of gestational diabetes cannot be ruled out. It is also important to pay attention to a lighter diet and avoid high-sugar, high-fat foods. This will not affect your choice of delivery method, as gestational diabetes is not an indication for cesarean section.
