Gestational Diabetes Treatment in Jayanagar, Bangalore
Gestational diabetes develops during pregnancy and requires careful monitoring to protect both mother and baby. Dr. Suman R provides specialized gestational diabetes care with personalized diet plans, blood sugar monitoring protocols, and close coordination with your obstetrician for the best possible outcome.
Understanding Gestational Diabetes
Gestational diabetes occurs when hormonal changes during pregnancy cause blood sugar levels to rise. It affects approximately 10-15% of pregnancies in India and usually resolves after delivery. However, it requires careful management during pregnancy to prevent complications for both mother and baby.
Women who develop gestational diabetes have a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes later in life, making proper management during pregnancy especially important.
