Gestational diabetes is not a precise concept, but includes two medical conditions: one is diabetes first and then pregnancy, called diabetes combined with pregnancy, and the other is diabetes discovered after pregnancy, called gestational diabetes. Both are treated differently, but the symptoms are similar. The symptoms of gestational diabetes can be described in two ways: on the one hand, the symptoms of diabetes in general and on the other hand, the symptoms specific to pregnancy. What are the symptoms of general diabetes include: drinking more, eating more, urinating more, being thirsty easily, being hungry easily, examination will reveal high blood glucose, high glycosylated hemoglobin, and sometimes hypoglycemic reactions such as dizziness, sweating, fatigue and weakness, and in severe cases, stubborn infections, etc. These common symptoms also appear in patients with gestational diabetes. Symptoms specific to gestational diabetes include a history of recurrent miscarriages, unexplained stillbirths or stillbirths, neonatal deaths, giant babies, excess amniotic fluid, or fetal malformations in people who have had previous pregnancies, all of which are related to the presence of diabetes, due to the adverse effects that high blood sugar can have on fetal development, so these conditions are both a result of gestational diabetes and, in turn, a manifestation of his. People with a history of these conditions or with a family history of these conditions have urine sugar, blood sugar, glycosylated hemoglobin and glucose tolerance measurements, which often reveal abnormalities. Therefore, the symptoms of gestational diabetes are, on the one hand, the clinical signs of high blood glucose and three excesses, and on the other hand, abnormalities in fetal development, any of which should alert you to the development of gestational diabetes. Nowadays, you can usually go to the hospital for a glucose screening test at 15 to 20 weeks after pregnancy to know clearly whether you have gestational diabetes.
