Question
How many blood tests are required for the pregnancy diabetes screening? Is it enough to fast in the morning only? Do I need to abstain from food after 8 PM the night before?
Answer
Diabetes screening during pregnancy has become a routine project in prenatal examinations. With the continuous improvement of living standards, more and more pregnant women have high body mass indexes and excessive nutrition, leading to an increasing incidence of gestational diabetes. Guidelines: Pregnant mothers should have a light diet the night before the blood test, avoid eating large amounts of fish and meat, and fast in the morning on the day of the test. Wishing you good health.
