Re: Dr. Sam--diabetes , pregnancy and metFrom: Micha (anonymous@obgyn.net)Fri, 28 Mar 2003 10:49:46 -0600 (CST)
Hi, thanks for responding. By four weeks pregnant I mean four weeks since conception, six weeks since my last period. My doctor said she spoke with a diabetes specialist from Duke University and this specialist said I could still get gestational diabetes even while on met. She also said no one in the US is recommending met while pregnant and that it crosses the placenta and the long term effects are unknown. I've spoken to some endocrinologists myself and they all lean toward my staying on it. It's just a little scary when you are actually pregnant and need to pick just the right moment to go off of it. Just to be clear, are you saying I'm less likely to get gestational diabetes if I'm on metformin?
