Diabetes during pregnancy is a significant maternal health concern that calls for timely screening, regular monitoring and comprehensive care.

With nearly 1 in 6 pregnancies affected by diabetes worldwide, early detection and appropriate management are essential to safeguarding the health of both mother and baby.

Unmanaged diabetes can increase the risk of complications such as pre-eclampsia, preterm delivery, stillbirth and complications for the newborn. It can also have long-term health implications for mothers, including hypertension and other cardiometabolic conditions, as well as an increased risk of type 2 diabetes for children.

What makes a difference?

Screen early: Ensure timely screening and identification of diabetes during pregnancy.

Monitor regularly: Keep blood glucose levels under check with consistent monitoring and medical guidance.

Care comprehensively: Follow appropriate treatment, nutrition, physical activity and mental health support.

Every pregnancy deserves informed care and attention. Early action, continued monitoring and the right support can make a meaningful difference to maternal and child health.

PMOS is more than a reproductive health concern โ€” it can also involve metabolic health.

Insulin resistance may lead to higher insulin levels, which can stimulate excess androgen production and contribute to symptoms such as irregular periods, acne and excess facial hair.

Understanding this connection is an important step towards recognising symptoms early, seeking appropriate screening and making informed decisions about care.

Your hormones, your metabolism, your health โ€” they are all connected.

๐ŸŒฟ Be Ready. Together.
