If the fasting blood glucose of pregnant women is 5.3mmol/L, it indicates that there is a certain risk, and we should be alert to whether there is abnormal glucose metabolism, because the fasting blood glucose of normal pregnant women is generally below 5.1mmol/L. Therefore, if the fasting blood glucose is monitored to be 5.3mmol/L, it is necessary to go to the hospital as soon as possible to assess glucose tolerance. If OGTT test is performed, fasting venous plasma glucose ≥5.1mmol/L, or venous plasma glucose ≥10.0mmol/L within one hour of OGTT, or venous plasma glucose ≥8.5mmol/L within two hours of OGTT. As long as one of the above conditions is met, gestational diabetes mellitus can be diagnosed. once diagnosed, diet and exercise control should be carried out first. Diet should be controlled, and regular exercise after meals should be recommended. Blood sugar should be monitored. If blood sugar is still not up to standard after lifestyle intervention, insulin hypoglycemic therapy should be taken in time to reduce the impact on the fetus and mother.
