A member asked:
When should a pregnant woman with type 1 dm test her sugar and a1c?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Definitely !: Glycohemoglobin or hemoglobin A1c is a reflection of your chronic control reflecting on your average blood sugar of the last 3 months. It is more important to focus in tighter control during pregnancy. Scheduled meals and blood sugar testing after each meal is necessary for good control.
