Article Excerpts about Gestational diabetes
Gestational diabetes develops only during
pregnancy. Like type 2 diabetes, it occurs more often in African
Americans, American Indians, Hispanic Americans, and people with a family
history of diabetes. Though it usually disappears after delivery, the
mother is at increased risk of getting type 2 diabetes later in life.
(Source: excerpt from Diabetes Overview: NIDDK)
Some women develop gestational diabetes during the late stages of
pregnancy. Although this form of diabetes usually goes away after the baby
is born, a woman who has had it is more likely to develop type 2 diabetes
later in life. Gestational diabetes is caused by the hormones of pregnancy
or a shortage of insulin. (Source: excerpt from Am I at Risk for Type 2 Diabetes: NIDDK)
