Pregnant women's blood sugar is low one hour later

After becoming pregnant, women may need to check their blood sugar levels frequently to prevent the occurrence of gestational diabetes. However, many pregnant women found that their glucose tolerance test results were slightly lower after one hour after the test. They were not sure whether it was abnormal and what to do about it. So, what should you do if your glucose tolerance level is slightly lower after one hour during pregnancy?

First of all, if a pregnant woman finds that her glucose tolerance is slightly lower when tested one hour after a meal, it may be caused by abnormal insulin secretion, or it may be that the insulin secretion is relatively high. The glucose tolerance level is slightly lower after one hour. At this time, if the pregnant woman has no other symptoms, there is generally no need to worry.

Secondly, the glucose tolerance of pregnant women in general should be higher at one hour than at fasting and two hours. This is because pregnant women have more sugar energy in their bodies after a meal. Compared with fasting and two hours ago, the sugar has not been completely metabolized, so their glucose tolerance should be slightly higher.

In addition, if pregnant women have high blood sugar levels, they should check their blood sugar levels frequently, pay attention to fasting and postprandial blood sugar levels, and observe the changes in blood sugar levels to check whether they have diabetes. If you have gestational diabetes, it may affect a woman's health during pregnancy, as well as the growth and development of the fetus. Pay attention to controlling blood sugar to avoid abnormalities.

Generally, decreased glucose tolerance is caused by abnormal insulin function, which proves that insulin antibodies are hidden in the bodies of pregnant women. If this type of disease cannot be controlled, it will eventually cause insulin secretion to decrease or even stop, and diabetes will occur. This is very important for the health of pregnant women and must be taken seriously.

After such a situation occurs, pregnant women need to appropriately limit their diet. It is also not recommended to eat foods with high sugar content, such as desserts, sugarcane, sugar cubes, brown sugar, etc., as they will cause a decrease in sugar tolerance and are not conducive to controlling blood sugar levels in pregnant women. Pregnant women are advised to eat some black wheat, which can help lower blood lipids.
