You still don't understand.
Diabetes mellitus is basically relative or absolute lack of insulin, right? Good.
1. What is the pathogenesis of GDM? Is there absolute lack(Type 1) or relative lack(type 2) of insulin?
2. Many women with GDM develop frank DM after delivery
In type2 DM there's not enough insulin or there's enough but the body doesn't respond to the presence of insulin..this subtype is mainly seen in obese and overweight people..enough insulin is there but fatty cells are less sensitive to insulin
Pregnancy is diabetogenics,there's enough insulin(type2)...in clear terms, during pregnancy everything the mother eats will first reach the baby including glucose..so in pregnancy, the mother's body will ignore the presence of the insulin to use the glucose so as to make it available to her baby..unfortunately in some women even after the baby has had enough of the glucose their body keep ignoring the presence of insulin to use the available glucose thereby making glucose accumulate in their blood. When the glucose accumulate in the blood they will start passing it in their urine...diabetes has set in
NB the woman was never diabetics prior to her pregnancy
In some circumstances,after delivery the woman's body will maintain the same posture i.e will continue to ignore the the presence of insulin to utilize glucose and in some others it will resolve only to come back in their later years and also some women never experienced diabetes again in their life after delivery
In all these some family history plays some role

They told you it's too late? Bro .... read up on foods to avoid ... don't rely on pharmaceuticals .... ask the elders.... they know the different leaves and herbs that do a better job than pills. Health section here named a few under different threads. Soda lovers .... corn flake and cereal lovers .... chill.
I was not told but I'm getting better now
I discovered that I'm diabetics when my blood sugar is 600+mg/dl and HbA1C is 12.6.
My eyes was affected
I have had 3 scans already but I'm on pills now combining it with exercise and diet
I'm just 35...that's my anger

You simply echoed what I stated without answering my question. Lemme repeat
Is GDM a type 1 or type 2 variation? Or is it stand-alone like OP said?
It's type 2 that happens during pregnancy
Insulin production by the pancreas is normal but pregnancy makes the woman's body to be less sensitive to the available insulin
In type 1 there's no insulin production by the pancreas

Yes
In GDM there's enough insulin but the woman's body does not respond to it for utilization of glucose..
Infact pregnancy in itself is diabetogenic state with hyperinsulinaemia. Reasons being that the woman's body try not to utilize glucose so as to provide for her fetus.
Many women develop T2DM later in life as you rightly said while in some they will remain diabetic even after their pregnancy

Hello sir,

I want to tell you it's never too late to overcome it. What you need is adequate information on how to go about it.

Please google more on Resistant Starch foods - both natural and converted.

Natural - unripe plantain, banana, beans

Converted - cooked and cooled rice.

Normally, starch is composed of simple sugars, which gets broken down in the body and absorbed into the bloodstream.

Resistant starch can't be digested because the molecules are tightly packed, making it difficult for the digestive enzymes to act on. So they move to the large intestine and become food (prebiotic) for the good bacteria there.

Please do extensive research on this. Resistant starch has categories.

Also, incorporate healthy fats, sugar-free fruits and vegetables and proteins in your diet.

If you have a Netflix account, search for this documentary "The Magic Pill" and watch it. It will expose your mind on how foods can reverse health problems.

Please don't give up! You just need to stop doing what you are used to doing and adopt new and better dietary regimen.

As we grow older, our bodies can't handle the foods we eat while we were younger. It's natural.

Our bodies do tell us but sometimes, we fail to read the signals.

At this stage, you'll eat for function and not taste.

You'll be fine sir.

Just don't give up!

Take charge of your health!
I will be fine
My HbA1c was 12.6% and my blood sugar was 33+ mmol/l.
It has started affecting my eyes before I discovered it
But I will be fine

So what type of diabetes is gestational DM? Insulin dependent or non insulin dependent?
Gestational diabetes is for pregnant women. They're diabetic when they are pregnant but become non diabetic after delivery
Insulin dependent or type 1 DM is when the pancreas cannot produce any insulin so you have to be taking insulin injection for the rest of your life..it is mainly for children and young people
Non insulin dependent or type2 DM occurs when the pancreas can produce insulin but your body is not sensitive to the insulin
It's mainly for adults

Politics › Re-how Dependent Are The Geopolitical Zone To FAAC by Rutherford2019(op): 9:53pm On Oct 26, 2023
Having gone through the statistics and comments from the post above I discovered that many Nigerians are not duly informed
For instance, sW is least dependent on FAAC but 50% of IGR from SW is contributed by Igbos, infant 70% of VAT from Lagos is solely contributed by Igbo businessmen
The same thing is applicable to Abuja and other parts of Nigeria
SS is too poor today because they're somehow hostile to Igbos..Imagine if they allow Igbos to come and develop their land
Even though SE is heavily dependent on FAAC people of the region remain least dependent on government both local,state and federal levels..
I don't care whether Tinubu forged certificate or not he should just return Nigeria to regions and let each zone develop at their own pace

I gained admission to study nursing in Cyprus and that will be my 2nd degree
Who have studied in Cyprus?
Is there any work and study there, can I hustle and pay my living expenses including my rent. Is it cheaper to live off campus
I have someone who can pay my school fees for the 4yr program
Politics › Take Away From Obi's Interview by Rutherford2019(op): 2:04pm On Oct 02, 2023
1. Devaluing the naira is different from floating the Naira..Tinubu floated the naira instead of Devaluing it.
Recall that Dele Edun told the national assembly that the real value of naira is 650 to a dollar
What Obi is saying is 'devalue the naira to its real market value and then defend it from there with export but instead Tinubu floated it with no defense
Obi is too much
Even though he's not an economist but he knows more than economist
Nigeria is missing someone
Politics › Re: The Saboteurs In Nigeria Are Too Many, Even Obi Would Have Had It Tough by Rutherford2019: 10:08pm On Sep 27, 2023
You're ignorant
The only person that suit Nigeria as president is Obi going by his antecedents
If you know Anambra state when Obi took over you will understand
I supported Tinubu because I thought that he would tackle Nigeria problems (restructuring) headlong but much to my chagrin he's a no brainer
Politics › Tinubus Academic Mistakes by Rutherford2019(op): 10:33pm On Aug 26, 2023
BAT made a great mistake by using foreign university as school he attended
Imagine if he had used UniLag or LASU?
The school would have exonerated him since
OUK is a drop out in UniMed but when he became governor he claimed that he started his university career in UniMed but completed in ABSU..The rest is history
The truth is that 75% of the people ruling Nigeria from councilorship to presidency have fake results
Infact Nigeria itself is fake
Politics › Nigeria Is The Problem by Rutherford2019(op): 4:00pm On Aug 15, 2023
I see many people blaming Tinubu for the country's woes and I did remember that buhari was blamed as well
Jonathan was tagged clueless and weak while Obasanjo was viewed as being high-handed and crooked..
Is Tinubu who managed Lagos economy too weak and clueless to manage Nigeria economy?
The truth is that Nigeria is ungovernable and will never get better
The only solution to the problem in Nigeria is division and let each parts manage themselves

Politics › Re: AI Simulation Of A War In Nigeria by Rutherford2019: 11:02am On Jul 26, 2023
International community will not allow that kind of war to happen again in Nigeria
If FG fails to manage Nigeria's diversity and it leads to war that will be the end of Nigeria
The main plan of IPOB is to do something that will cause war and the international community will come in but Igbos don't want to toe on that part
Politics › Resign Now...tinubu by Rutherford2019(op): 11:30pm On Jul 25, 2023
It's high time Tinubu throw in the towel
He has neither economic nor security plans to make Nigeria better
Only senseless person will come into power and start implementing the policies of his predecessor without first reviewing those policies
I'm very sure Tinubu didn't know the amount of fuel Nigeria produce and consume before he delve into policy of subsidy removal
A thinking president would get all the files used by previous administration and reviewing them before embarking on any policy implementation
For example, in 2007 after Yaradua appointed SGF Kingibe said "Yaradua's tenure will be different from Obasanjo's.
And we all saw the difference
Tinubu should resign to OLD PEOPLE CARE HOME IN FRANCE
Career › Re: Is Japa Worth It? by Rutherford2019: 12:42pm On Jul 25, 2023
My advice
I have lived in UK for 4yrs and currently in Texas with my family
Don't japa yet but be ready to japa
Only few people earn #3000 abroad
No nurse or Doctor earn that kind of money abroad unless it's an agency work
It will take you 5+yrs to settle abroad and you will be doing more of menial jobs, infact #3000 is nothing in UK or US
Save up about half of your salary in dollar and be ready to japa when you lose your job but so far you are in this your current position my guy enjoy it while it last
There's nothing abroad even oyibo people use to wonder why we are coming over there because it's not easy for them
NB don't invest the money in Nigeria just be saving up in dollars because you will need it later
Politics › Why Nigeria Has Not Been Divided by Rutherford2019(op): 2:49pm On Jul 24, 2023
The break up of Nigeria is external and has nothing to do with Internal making
Nigeria came close to division during Yaradua regime by Obama administration when Gadafi advises the international community that the only solution to peace in the region is to divide the country according religious lines
Time is ticking for Nigeria to get it right or we will part our ways..
NB No amount of protest by IPOB,Yoruba nation agitators or Co will lead to Nigeria breakup
America will do it when it's convenient for them

The insecurity in SE is act of criminality and not by IPOB
The 2 persons arrested are a Yoruba Muslim and a Ghanaian.
Thorough investigation should be carried out

You guys are unintelligent, myopic and very dull-witted but unfortunately you want to contribute to every tropical issues. How much is 500b for 6months compared to over 4 trillion that could have been spent on subsidy in the same period.
So are you trying to say that the 500bn is enough
Increasing minimum wage to 150k,borrowing 800m dollars with it's repayment interest, borrowing $500m dollars from WB etc plus the hardship you are facing are not more than the subsidy money?
Think with your brain
