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.

View allI'm 30 years old and currently 20 weeks pregnant. At 13 weeks, my NT measurement was 3.2mm. Both my amniocentesis and NIPT reports came back showing low risk. I've attached my anomaly scan report from my 20th week, and I'm just wondering if everything looks normal?
Drinking water before eating bananas or any fruit is generally safe. However, it's recommended to have a gap of at least 30 minutes to 1 hour between drinking water and eating fruits. This allows for: Proper digestion of the fruit Prevention of dilution of digestive enzymes Reduced risk of bloating or discomfort But, if you're thirsty, drink water and wait for a short period before eating the fruit.

I'm really worried because I've noticed pinworms in my vaginathere were three of them. It's been happening for about a week now, and I can actually feel them moving around down there. What should I do?
Pinworms can cause irritation and inflammation in the vaginal area in rare cases of heavy infestation. The parasite can travel from the anal area to the vagina, uterus, fallopian tubes, and pelvic organs. This can lead to complications such as vaginitis and endometritis.So you have to take combination therapy with oral mebendazole (Vermox) and ivermectin (Stromectol

I'm really concerned because I'm 3 days late on my period and that never happens to me. Normally, Id be getting these cramps, headaches, backaches, and mood swings right before my period starts, but even with all these symptoms, there's still nothing. I was supposed to get it on Friday, and now its Monday. I did something on Wednesday thats freaking me out a bitI masturbated after having sperm on my fingers, but I did wipe it off with tissue before that, and it wasn't immediate. Plus, on Saturday, I pushed myself really hard during a workout and ended up feeling dizzy and nauseous. Could either of these things be affecting my period, or is something else going on? I'm starting to panic here and would love some insight.
Periods get late upto 7 days from your regular timings, depending on various physical and psychological issues. Get relax and wait for next 3-4 days, if not start by then, you could consult a gynecologist.
