Overview

It is well known, that number of diabetics pregnancies is raising. It is due to growing amount of women with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, which can easily reach the right age for pregnancy. It allows new ways of diabetes treatment, new technologies and in general better health state of this women. Displacement the pregnancy to later age, leads to gestational diabetes increasing. Especially women with pregestational diabetes are in higher risk of perinatal and diabetic complications. More than half of all pregnancies are not planned and so that often not well controlled or used inappropriate medication. Preterm deliveries, acute sectiones cesarea, eclampsia, preeclampsia or higher risk of late diabetics complications are in consequencies. The article brings the current point of view to treatment diabetic pregnancies with respect to prevent all types of complications.
