Abstract

Abstract Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) has become a major public health issue and one of the most discussed topics in contemporary obstetrics. Due to rising prevalence of GDM worldwide impact and importance of this medical condition in good quality antenatal care is growing. GDM is associated with serious adverse perinatal outcomes and unfavorable long-term health consequences for both, mother and her child. Despite a great amount of knowledge accumulated regarding GDM, medical community remains indecisive and still debates the most appropriate diagnostic strategy, screening policy, and treatment options for pregnancies complicated with GDM. These unresolved issues generate controversies, motivate further research and contribute to the growing interest surrounding GDM. In this review we will discuss and try to explain some of them.
