Patient's question:
Pregnancy discovered at 28 weeks with gestational diabetes, fasting 6.2, postprandial 8.7.Doctor's answer:
Although oral hypoglycemic drugs can control hyperglycemia in diabetic pregnant women, there is no clinical evidence regarding whether these drugs have an impact on the fetus. Insulin, on the other hand, is a natural hormone in the body, and its safety is reliable. Therefore, when the blood sugar of a diabetic pregnant woman is too high to be controlled by diet and exercise alone, insulin must be used to regulate blood sugar and ensure the safety of both the mother and the baby.
