High blood glucose during pregnancy may have certain effects on the mother, fetus, and newborn, such as miscarriage, macrosomia, fetal growth restriction, neonatal hypoglycemia, and neonatal respiratory distress syndrome.
For patients with high blood glucose during pregnancy, poor glycemic control may have adverse effects on the mother, fetus, and newborn, and the effects on the pregnant woman include miscarriage, easy to be combined with gestational hypertension, which is mainly related to factors such as severe insulin resistance state, which will reduce the resistance of pregnant women and easy to be combined with infections, and so on.
The effects on the fetus include macrosomia, overdevelopment of the trunk if the fetus is exposed to hyperinsulinemia caused by high blood glucose for a long time, and fetal growth limitation because high blood glucose inhibits the development of the embryo in the early stage of pregnancy, and so on.
Maternal hyperglycemia reduces the production of fetal lung surface active substances, resulting in neonatal respiratory distress syndrome, and also predisposes the newborn to hypoglycemia.
High blood glucose during pregnancy affects the pregnant woman, the fetus and the newborn, and it is recommended to standardize treatment under the guidance of a doctor when elevated blood glucose during pregnancy occurs.
