    Gestational diabetes occurs when a pregnant woman's body is unable to produce enough insulin or the insulin produced is ineffective, leading to high blood glucose levels. During pregnancy, hormones normally produced help the fetus by causing insulin resistance in the mother's body and increasing her need for insulin. For some women, their bodies cannot keep up with these changes and produce enough insulin, resulting in high blood sugar and potential complications for both mother and baby if not properly managed.

    Gestational Diabetes Pathophysiology

    Pregnant woman with pre-


    diabetic/ diabetic state

    Fetus relies on maternal


    glucose as primary fuel source Elevation of stress hormones Increased hormone production
    Increased insulin requirement
    due to pregnancy (cortisol, epinephrine, and (placental lactogen, estrogen,
    glucagon) and progesterone)

    Pre- diabetic/ diabetic woman


    can’t produce sufficient insulin As compensatory mechanism, Pregnancy triggers protective
    counterbalanced by increased mechanisms (anti- insulin effect)
    insulin production

    Prolonged elevation of stress


    hormones cortisol, epinephrine,
    Insulin resistant Insulin antagonizing effect gucagon
    tissues not overcome

    Increased blood glucose level


    (hyperglycemia) Insulin administration
    Unable to transport
    blood glucose to cell
    for use as energy If not controlled, may lead
    to GESTATIONAL DIABETES
    Dietary management

    Still birth Fetal anomaly Birth of infant large/ Premature delivery


    small for gestational age
