Patient's question:
I am four months pregnant and have undergone a thorough check-up that revealed gestational diabetes. I am very concerned about my health and the baby's health, so I would like to ask you how should pregnant women with gestational diabetes be treated?Doctor's answer:
Currently, pregnant women who develop diabetes may experience recurrent symptoms such as excessive thirst, increased appetite, and weight loss. Additionally, patients may also experience nausea. Although nausea is common during early pregnancy, in cases where diabetes develops, the nausea may worsen, manifesting as severe vomiting, which can even lead to dehydration and electrolyte imbalance.
