Abstract

|
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is an important disease which complicates pregnant woman and fetus. Large for gestational age (LGA) is one of the primary complications and is closely associated with the hyperglycemia of pregnant woman. Although strict control of blood glucose can decrease the occurrence of LGA, the rate of LGA in GDM pregnancy is higher than that of normal pregnancy. Understanding of the difference of fetal growth between LGA and adequate for gestational age in GDM pregnancy and consideration about the time and marker for prediction and prevention of LGA in GDM pregnancy are helpful for prenatal care of GDM pregnancy. In this article, the prediction and prevention of LGA in GDM pregnancy will be discussed.
