Type 2 diabetes and pregnancy
This is my 2nd pregnacy and in pregnacy my HbA1c came 6.6 and doctor told me that you are diabetic before pregnacy. I had Gestational diabetes in my 1st pregnacy but it was in 3rd trimester and I controlled it with diet and I have healthy baby.. just wanted to know will I be diabetic post pregnacy also.. can it be controlled, is it reversible? now I have started with insulin.
I am worried about type 2 diabetes.. I don't want to suffer from it at so early age..
