Can a PPBS test help diagnose gestational diabetes?

Yes, a PPBS test can help diagnose and monitor gestational diabetes by assessing blood sugar levels after meals. Pregnant women are at higher risk of post-meal glucose spikes due to hormonal changes affecting insulin sensitivity. Regular PPBS testing during pregnancy ensures that blood sugar levels are within a safe range, reducing the risk of complications for both mother and baby.
