Women with normal pregnancy will be compared to women with gestational diabetes on diet or Metformin alone during Fasting Ramadan. They will be monitored and will be observed for incidence of hypoglycemia using continuous glucose monitoring devices.
The physiological change in food and sleep pattern during Ramadan impacted hypoglycemia risks among pregnant women. Few studies investigated the incidence of hypoglycemia pregnant women with or without diabetes during fasting in Ramadan in Saudi Arabia. This study aims to understand the glucose variability in pregnant women during fasting Ramadan in Saudi Arabia.
