Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is defined as glucose intolerance first recognized during
pregnancy. It is a common metabolic complication of pregnancy and is associated with
increased risks for both the mother and the fetus if not properly managed.
Early detection and appropriate management can significantly reduce complications such as
macrosomia, neonatal hypoglycemia, and cesarean delivery. This case report highlights the
diagnosis and management of GDM during the third trimester of pregnancy and emphasizes
the importance of monitoring and lifestyle interventions.
