Patient's question:
I am seven months pregnant, but there is a sweet smell in my urine. Could this be a symptom of diabetes? / Does diabetes have a genetic component? Is it easy to get diabetes during pregnancy? / I'm very afraid it will affect the baby's development. I'm also too scared to go to the hospital for a check-up.Doctor's answer:
Good blood sugar control can reduce fetal mortality. Infants born to gestational diabetes patients have a six times higher risk of developing neonatal respiratory distress syndrome compared to infants born to non-diabetic mothers. Newborns are prone to neonatal hypoglycemia. However, when blood sugar control is stable, these effects are minimal, and the symptoms mentioned above do not occur. It is recommended that you visit a diabetes specialty hospital for further detailed examination to accurately evaluate your condition, provide individualized treatment based on standardized guidelines, and achieve precise dynamic control. Additionally, most gestational diabetes patients can recover after delivery.
