Patient's question:
I have always loved sweet foods since I was a child. At that time, I didn't feel anything, but it was during a physical examination that I found my blood sugar was high, and I was also very overweight. So, I started taking medication to control it. Now, my blood sugar is well-controlled, so I decided to have a child. We have been married for several years, and it was because of this condition that I didn't have a child.Doctor's answer:
Hello:When blood sugar is controlled under insulin, it is possible to have children. High blood sugar toxicity and oral hypoglycemic drugs can lead to fetal malformations. Diabetes is not an inherited disease but has a family tendency. As long as you take good preventive measures, your child will not get the disease.
Here are some suggestions for preventing diabetes:
1. Avoid overeating, maintain a regular lifestyle, chew food thoroughly, and eat more vegetables.
2. Prevent infectious diseases; do not take excessive antibiotics.
3. Exercise more!
Wishing you good health!
