Résumé:
Hormonal assessment is crucial in cases of gestational diabetes to evaluate pancreatic
function. Gestational diabetes is often associated with insulin resistance. A hormone test
measures insulin levels and assesses the pancreas ability to produce this essential
hormone for blood sugar regulation. Monitoring hormones such as TSH ( Thyroid-
Stimulating-Hormone), c-peptide and prolactin can influence insulin sensitivity. A
hormone profile can detect any hormonal imbalances that may contribute to the
development of gestational diabetes, and help guide the treatment and management of
this condition.
In Tebessa , a study was conducted on a population divided into three groups (women
with gestational diabetes, non-diabetic pregnant women and a control group), to perform
hormonal assessments of the following biochemical and immunological parameters (
Glycemia, HbA1c, Peptide-c, Prolactin, Insulin, TSH, OGTT).
According to the results of our statistical study, a highly significant difference was
observed between the TSH, Glycemia and Prolactin levels of patients with gestational
diabetes compared to controls .
