Who is at risk for gestational diabetes?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Pregnant women who can't make enough insulin during late pregnancy develop gestational diabetes. Being overweight or obese is linked to gestational diabetes which may already have insulin resistance when they become pregnant. Gaining too much weight during pregnancy may also be a factor.

I've just found out I have an endometriotic cyst that's 53.5 cm I'm 29 years old. Is surgery the only way to get rid of it, and could this affect my chances of getting pregnant in the future?
While surgery, specifically laparoscopic cystectomy, is often the recommended treatment for a large endometriotic cyst, it's not the only option. Hormone therapy can help manage the condition and potentially shrink the cyst. Regarding fertility, endometriosis itself can impact pregnancy chances, but removing the cyst may improve them, especially in cases of deep endometriosis

I'm planning my wedding and my gynecologist recommended starting on Femovan for six months, beginning on the 5th day of my cycle. My wedding will happen before I've finished all 21 tablets. Is it still going to be effective? Also, is starting on the 5th day the right approach? I really want to be sure it's all good and if it'll work without any other protection.
Starting Femovan on the 5th day of your cycle is a common practice to ensure its effectiveness. As long as you take the pills consistently every day, even if your marriage occurs before completing the full 21 tablets, Femovan should still be effective in preventing pregnancy. It is important to follow your gynecologist's instructions for the best results. Femovan is a combined oral contraceptive pill containing ethinylestradiol and gestodene.
