Diabetes mellitus in pregnancy: pre-existing diabetes mellitus, non-insulin-dependent - what does this mean

Diabetes mellitus in pregnancy is a condition that occurs when a woman has pre-existing diabetes mellitus that is not dependent on insulin. it is caused by the hormonal changes in pregnancy that interfere with the body's ability to use and produce insulin, resulting in high blood sugar levels.

What happens during the disease - diabetes mellitus in pregnancy: pre-existing diabetes mellitus, non-insulin-dependent

The pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus in pregnancy is multi-factorial and involves a complex interplay between the mother's pre-existing diabetes mellitus, the fetus, and the placenta. pre-existing non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in the mother results in hyperglycemia, which causes an increase in fetal insulin resistance. this in turn leads to increased production of fetal insulin, which further increases fetal insulin resistance. the placenta is unable to adequately transport glucose to the fetus, resulting in fetal hyperglycemia and the development of diabetes mellitus in pregnancy.
