During pregnancy, diabetic retinopathy may occasionally appear as red blood vessels and is related to diabetes.

Patient's question:

Health consultation description: I have gestational diabetes in the 6th month of pregnancy. Recently, I noticed the reappearance of red blood vessels around my eyes. I'm not sure what's going on. Please explain for the experts: Will the reappearance of red blood vessels be related to gestational diabetes?

Doctor's answer:

This is a case of gestational diabetes, and treatment should be controlled to prevent interference with the fetus's growth and development. It is recommended to first adopt lifestyle intervention treatment, such as controlling dietary intake, balancing meat and vegetables, limiting total calories, avoiding sweet foods, eating less but better, engaging in appropriate exercise, and regular follow-up tests. Insulin treatment may be used if necessary. For breakfast, you can eat things like steamed buns and eggs. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
