Lifestyle program for high blood sugar in early pregnancy
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests if a lifestyle program (diet and activity changes) can help pregnant women who have slightly high blood sugar in early pregnancy. It aims to improve glucose levels and reduce complications for both mother and baby.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are at least 18 years old and pregnant with one baby.
- You had an ultrasound between 11 and almost 14 weeks showing a healthy pregnancy.
- A blood test before 14 weeks showed your blood sugar is slightly high — not high enough to be full diabetes, but still above normal.
- You did not have diabetes or prediabetes before pregnancy.
- You are not taking steroids or certain mental health medications that affect blood sugar.
- You do not have a serious medical or mental health condition that would interfere with the study, and you are not planning to end the pregnancy due to a problem found on the early ultrasound.
