Who is at risk for gestational diabetes?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Pregnant women who can't make enough insulin during late pregnancy develop gestational diabetes. Being overweight or obese is linked to gestational diabetes which may already have insulin resistance when they become pregnant. Gaining too much weight during pregnancy may also be a factor.

View allI'm not sexually active, and when I am, it's like once every three months or so. I don't smoke, but I do have a beer every now and then. I'm wondering if there's a way to change this or if there's something I should be doing differently?
It's important to address any underlying physical or emotional factors that may be affecting your sexual health. Low frequency of sexual activity can be influenced by stress, lifestyle, or relationship dynamics. If you're concerned, consider speaking with a healthcare professional to explore potential causes and solutions, including lifestyle changes, managing stress, or improving communication with a partner.

I'm 30 weeks pregnant and just found out that my amniotic fluid index is 20.8 cm. I'm a bit worried if this is normal. My blood sugar levels and glucose tolerance test were normal, and I don't have an RH negative blood type. Could there be a reason for this high fluid level? And, is there anything I can do to reduce the excess fluid?

I've been dealing with constant pain in my lower back and lower abdomen since the end of September after lifting something heavy. It was really bad at first, and I had to stay in bed for about 45 days because moving was just too painful. Now I can get through my day-to-day activities, but its still uncomfortable. On top of this, my periods are now 11 days late, but my pregnancy test came back negative. I'm really worried and not sure what's going on. Could these issues be related somehow, and what should I do next?
