Gestational Diabetes (GDM) is also known as high blood sugar during pregnancy. What happens if you have diabetes during pregnancy? In this episode, I am happy to talk with Karen Elkind-Hirsch, PhD, MS. She is an expert in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), insulin resistance, and gestational diabetes. Dr.Elkind-Hirsch has published over 100 articles on topics in reproductive medicine and endocrinology. Dr. Elkind-Hirsch will cover how gestational diabetes is diagnosed, treated, and how it affects you and your baby. I am sure you are going to get a lot of value from this chat.
