Abstract

It has been an entire century since the introduction of insulin into clinical practice, which, among other, led to improvements of fertility and pregnancy outcomes of women suffering from gestational diabetes. The prevalence of diabetes worldwide and in Serbia is high and tends to increase as a consequence of modern lifestyle. Nevertheless, modern diagnostic and therapeutic approaches enable people with diabetes to achieve and complete pregnancies without adverse outcomes. Gestational diabetes can be considered as non-communicable disease and efforts should be made to determine its effects on offspring. In the context of COVID-19 pandemic, diabetes mellitus was identified as an important risk factor for severe forms of the disease.
