Diabetes, specifically gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), has become a global concern, impacting one out of every ten pregnancies. While previously more prevalent in developed nations, GDM is now increasingly common in developing regions, presenting a growing public health challenge. Despite often resolving after delivery, GDM raises the risk of recurrence in subsequent pregnancies and elevates the long-term risks of cardiovascular disease and diabetes for both the mother and child.
