Abstract
|
|
|
|
Insulin resistance in patients with diabetes mellitus may be aggravated by various causes, including infection, obesity, and medications known to affect insulin sensitivity. During pregnancy, insulin resistance can be the result of hormones secreted by the placenta. Blood glucose control during pregnancy is important in preventing obstetric complications including miscarriage, congenital malformations, and macrosomia. We report a case of severe insulin resistance in an obese diabetic pregnant woman whose one-day insulin requirements were up to 1,000 IU.
