Question
A patient diagnosed with type 2 diabetes since 2007 takes three tablets of Glucophage daily and has used insulin for three months during hospitalization. After discharge, due to poor dietary control, blood sugar levels soared. Now, the patient plans to conceive, but yesterday’s test results showed fasting and post-meal blood sugar levels of 17.5 and 17.5, respectively. The doctor advised hospitalization for treatment and the use of Novolog insulin. The patient hopes to receive a plan for pre-pregnancy preparation.
Answer
The patient has a diabetes history of over 6 years, and it is recommended that the patient hospitalize promptly under the doctor’s assistance to control blood sugar levels. At the same time, dietary control is necessary and treatment should be followed accordingly. Additionally, the patient should consult with a gynecologist to ensure healthy pregnancy and responsible parenting for the next generation. We hope the patient can soon realize her dream of pregnancy and wish her health.
