Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) poses a significant global health concern, impacting around 5 million women annually in India alone. It is linked to insulin resistance during pregnancy, potentially leading to obstetrical complications and adverse fetal outcomes, such as preeclampsia, Cesarean delivery, stillbirth, macrosomia, and hypoglycemia. Moreover, a history of GDM elevates the risk of recurrence in future pregnancies, as well as the development of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease later in life. Join us in this session with Dr. Anita Kant and Dr. Alaka Deshpande on February 2 at 7:00 p.m. to learn more about the topic.
