Blood sugar tracking after pregnancy for diabetes risk
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study uses a continuous glucose monitor to track blood sugar for 2 weeks after delivery in women who had gestational diabetes. The goal is to better understand who develops type 2 diabetes later and help prevent it.

This study is testing whether wearing a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) early in pregnancy can help find and manage high blood sugar, which may lower the risk of problems for you and your baby. You would wear a small sensor under your skin, and the device sends information to a smartphone app.
This study tests whether wearing a continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor on your skin) in early pregnancy can help predict if you will develop gestational diabetes later. The goal is to catch it early so you and your baby get the best care possible.
This study tests a continuous glucose monitor (a small patch that tracks your blood sugar) for a few weeks after you give birth. It aims to see if this tool can help women who recently had gestational diabetes better understand their blood sugar levels after delivery.
This study tests whether using a continuous glucose monitor during pregnancy is useful for people with type 2 diabetes. It may help track blood sugar levels more closely to support safer pregnancy care.
This study uses a continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor that tracks your blood sugar) after you give birth to see if your blood sugar levels return to normal. It may help detect early signs of type 2 diabetes and guide your postpartum care.
This study tests whether using a continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor that checks your blood sugar all day) can improve outcomes for you and your baby during gestational diabetes. It may help you manage your blood sugar more easily and reduce risks.
