  • Neonatal Medicine
  • Endocrinology

Background:

  • Diabetes mellitus in pregnancy remains a complex condition with ongoing debates regarding its pathophysiology and management.
  • Despite advances, offspring of diabetic mothers face increased risks of morbidity.
  • Understanding these risks is crucial for improving perinatal outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review potential factors contributing to morbidity in offspring of diabetic women.
  • To discuss current clinical management strategies for pregnancies complicated by diabetes mellitus.
  • To address the ongoing controversy surrounding the pathophysiology and management of diabetic pregnancies.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of studies on pregnancy complicated by diabetes mellitus.
