Pregnant women with high blood glucose are advised to seek timely medical attention for a definitive diagnosis and treatment. If the diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus is confirmed, if the fasting blood glucose is low and the postprandial blood glucose is high, it is advisable to choose intermediate-acting plus short-acting insulin, and pay attention to changing the injection site more often.
Most pregnant women with high blood glucose can get satisfactory control of their blood glucose through strict diet and exercise treatment. However, if diet and exercise alone do not control well, insulin injection should be prescribed to simulate physiological insulin secretion and keep insulin in the body at a basal level in order to achieve the purpose of lowering glucose.
In addition, insulin injection should be chosen in areas rich in subcutaneous fat, such as the abdomen, outer thighs, etc., and attention should be paid to changing the site so as not to aggravate the hardness or aggravate the symptoms of local irritation.
Insulin is a prescription drug and needs to be injected under the guidance of a physician, and should not be used blindly on its own.
