Patient's question:
Because of a certain illness, I have been unable to stop taking medication for a long time. Due to the medication, my endocrine system has been affected. Now I want to stop taking the medication and regulate my body. Can I eat bird's nest if I have gestational diabetes?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, how early pregnant women can consume bird's nest should be determined based on the actual situation of your cousin. First, what is the fasting blood sugar level of your cousin? Third, how far along is the pregnancy now? Does she have a history of diabetes or a family history of diabetes? Has she been prescribed hypoglycemic medication? Has she undergone regular prenatal check-ups at the hospital? Is the fetal growth and development normal? Considering all these factors, it is recommended that your patient visit the obstetrics department of the hospital for a follow-up examination. The doctor should conduct a face-to-face consultation to determine the diet for your cousin and make adjustments to her blood sugar levels based on the actual situation.
