What are the symptoms of hypoglycemia in girls?

If a person has hypoglycemia, his or her reaction ability may deteriorate and he or she may become irritable and restless. After a woman suffers from hypoglycemia, her mood is easily affected. She may cry over small problems and feel weak. In severe cases, she may have convulsions or even respiratory arrest. When a woman suffers from hypoglycemia, the first thing she should do is to get checked actively to find out the specific disease. The second thing she should do is to pay attention to proper sugar supplementation.

Symptoms of hypoglycemia: (1) Adrenergic symptoms include sweating, nervousness, trembling, weakness, dizziness, palpitations, and hunger, which are attributed to increased sympathetic nerve activity and increased adrenaline release (which may occur in patients who have had their adrenal glands removed). (2) Manifestations of the central nervous system include confusion, abnormal behavior (which may be mistaken for drunkenness), visual impairment, stupor, coma, and epilepsy. Hypoglycemic coma is often accompanied by a decrease in body temperature.

What to do with hypoglycemia? Usually acute adrenergic symptoms and early central nervous system symptoms can be relieved by oral glucose or glucose-containing foods. If a patient treated with insulin or sulfonylurea suddenly develops confusion or abnormal behavior, it is recommended that they drink a glass of juice or syrup with 3 spoons of sugar. The patient's family should be informed of these treatment options. A glass of milk may also work. It is recommended that patients on insulin therapy carry candy or glucose tablets with them at all times. Patients treated with sulfonylureas, especially long-acting drugs and chlorpropamide, may have repeated episodes of hypoglycemia within hours or days if they do not eat enough. When oral glucose is insufficient to relieve hypoglycemia, glucose or glucagon may be given intravenously.

In addition, there is a kind of hypoglycemia that is normal. For example, if you go out for a run to exercise without eating in the morning, because you did not eat breakfast, the body's sugar storage is reduced after a night of consumption, and the morning exercise also consumes a lot of sugar. This is a short-term hypoglycemia, which can be relieved immediately by going home and eating breakfast.
