I actual use the 50 gram screen as part of the infertility screen when I am sent women who are overwieght and clearly are having anovulatory cycles. There is no question diabets is pregnancy is bad, gestional diabetes unfortunately is a statistical diagnosis, you set the criteria strict enough and 20% of your patients will have gestional diabetes.

Take care, John

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
