What Does Gestational Diabetes Mean?
Gestational diabetes is a type of diabetes that develops during pregnancy, usually in the second or third trimester. It occurs when the body is not producing enough insulin, a hormone that regulates blood sugar levels. This condition can pose risks to both the mother and the baby if not managed properly. Symptoms may include increased thirst, fatigue, and frequent urination. It’s crucial for women with gestational diabetes to work closely with their healthcare providers to maintain a healthy pregnancy.
