Since it usually causes no typical symptoms, it is difficult to detect \u2013 which is why screening tests are invaluable. The most important measure in treatment is an appropriate pregnancy diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong>What is gestational diabetes?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Gestational diabetes is a condition of elevated blood sugar levels (hyperglycemia) caused by impaired glucose tolerance during pregnancy. This means that blood sugar levels remain persistently above normal. The condition occurs only during pregnancy and is among the most common complications during this period. It often affects women who had no prior health issues of this kind, though not exclusively. Women with congenital insulin production disorders or pre-existing insulin resistance are also at risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Additionally, pregnant women with previously undiagnosed diabetes are particularly vulnerable. Early and comprehensive treatment greatly improves outcomes for both mother and child. Untreated gestational diabetes is especially dangerous because it typically has no clear symptoms \u2013 increasing the risk to the unborn child. However, it can be diagnosed early in pregnancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong>What causes gestational diabetes?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">The development of gestational diabetes is complex and multifactorial. The primary cause lies in changes to carbohydrate metabolism and the body&#8217;s impaired ability to adapt, particularly due to increasing insulin resistance, which is amplified by hormonal fluctuations and other internal and external factors. Risk increases significantly with excess weight \u2013 fat tissue stimulates insulin production, leading to hyperinsulinemia, which further promotes fat accumulation: a vicious cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Age also plays a role \u2013 the older the expectant mother, the less capable the body often is at compensating for hormonal changes. Gestational diabetes occurs especially often in women over the age of 35. Other risk factors include high blood pressure, gestational diabetes in previous pregnancies, and a family history of diabetes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Symptoms of gestational diabetes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">The symptoms of gestational diabetes are nonspecific, which makes early diagnosis difficult. Many affected women report general discomfort or fatigue \u2013 often interpreted as normal pregnancy symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Typical (though not definitive) signs include:<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\" wp-block-list eplus-wrapper eplus-styles-uid-4a802f\">\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Frequent urination<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Fatigue<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Drowsiness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Dizziness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Increased exhaustion<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Cravings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Intense thirst or dry mouth<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Weight gain during pregnancy is normal and not automatically an indicator of diabetes, but in combination with being overweight, it can be a risk factor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong>How is gestational diabetes diagnosed?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Despite a lack of symptoms, gestational diabetes can be diagnosed early \u2013 through specialized lab tests recommended at the first gynecological appointment. Women with higher risk factors (e.g., family history, overweight) should be monitored regularly even before a planned pregnancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">A fasting blood glucose level of 100 mg\/dL (5.6 mmol\/L) is considered the upper limit. If the value is between 100 and 125 mg\/dL, an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) \u2013 also known as a \u201csugar curve\u201d \u2013 is performed. Pregnant women with normal results require no further testing beyond routine checks. Abnormal results call for regular follow-up tests. The test uses venous blood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Is gestational diabetes dangerous for the baby?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">In the first trimester, gestational diabetes can be particularly dangerous because the baby\u2019s organ development (organogenesis) is in full swing. Possible birth defects primarily affect:<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\" wp-block-list eplus-wrapper eplus-styles-uid-814321\">\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">The heart and central nervous system<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Arterial malformations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Anencephaly (absence of large parts of the brain)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Spina bifida (open spine)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Underdevelopment of legs or pelvis<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Early and consistent treatment can significantly reduce risks. It is crucial to maintain stable blood sugar levels throughout the entire pregnancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Possible complications<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Later complications for the child are usually metabolic in nature, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\" wp-block-list eplus-wrapper eplus-styles-uid-8b699d\">\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Hyperglycemia<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Hypocalcemia<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Excessive birth weight (macrosomia), which may necessitate a C-section<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Birth injuries<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Breathing difficulties (meconium aspiration)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Increased susceptibility to infections<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Rarely, there may be enlargement of the pancreatic islets (Langerhans cells). Psychomotor development delays or later tendencies toward obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome are also possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong>How is gestational diabetes treated?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Treatment should be interdisciplinary \u2013 involving diabetologists, nutritionists, and gynecologists. The goal is to stabilize blood sugar levels. The White classification distinguishes between:<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\" wp-block-list eplus-wrapper eplus-styles-uid-0541f6\">\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Type G1<\/strong>: Diet alone is sufficient<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Type G2<\/strong>: Insulin therapy is necessary<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Light, regular exercise is also helpful but must be adapted to the stage of pregnancy and the woman&#8217;s fitness level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong>How does insulin therapy work?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Insulin is injected subcutaneously (under the skin). Dosage and timing are individualized. If blood sugar is high in the morning, a fast-acting insulin injection before breakfast is required. If high in the evening, a long-acting dose before bedtime may be needed. Therapy is always conducted under medical supervision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong>General recommendations for gestational diabetes:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<ul class=\" wp-block-list eplus-wrapper eplus-styles-uid-e920ad\">\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Check blood sugar at least 4 times daily (fasting and after meals)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Maintain a healthy, balanced diet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Exercise regularly to improve insulin sensitivity<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Keep weight within a healthy range<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Eat a low-sugar diet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Follow insulin therapy as prescribed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Get regular ultrasound checks to monitor the baby<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<h2 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Nutrition in gestational diabetes \u2013 What to eat and what to avoid?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">The diet should resemble that for type 2 diabetes:<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\" wp-block-list eplus-wrapper eplus-styles-uid-f51fb2\">\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Caloric intake based on body weight (approx. 35 kcal\/kg for normal BMI, 25 kcal\/kg for overweight individuals)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">5\u20136 small, regular meals<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Carbohydrates from whole grains, proteins, healthy fats (e.g., from fish, plant oils, legumes)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Few processed foods<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Gentle cooking methods: steaming, boiling, braising<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Alternatives: e.g., yogurt with homemade muesli instead of sweetened fruit yogurt<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<h2 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong>After birth<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">After delivery, the special diet can be stopped. However, blood sugar should continue to be monitored for about 7\u201310 days. If insulin was used and the dose was &lt;10 units, it can usually be discontinued immediately. Higher doses should be tapered gradually. Follow-up is coordinated with the doctor and midwife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Gestational diabetes \u2013 Did you know&#8230;?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<ul class=\" wp-block-list eplus-wrapper eplus-styles-uid-86be01\">\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">One in ten pregnant women develops gestational diabetes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">The recurrence rate in a subsequent pregnancy is 30\u201369%.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">18\u201350% of affected women later develop type 2 diabetes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Many women permanently change their diet due to the diagnosis.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Stress impacts diabetes risk during pregnancy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Gestational diabetes is not a sentence \u2013 good self-care significantly reduces complications.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<h2 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong>FAQ<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>What is gestational diabetes?<\/strong><br>A condition where insulin production is impaired, leading to high blood sugar.
