Age and body mass index (BMI) are important factors in whether a woman will develop gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Those factors are particularly relevant in black African and South Asian women, according to a study published online November 2 in BJOG...Fat people should not get pregnant.
"Advancing maternal age and BMI are more important risk factors for GDM in South Asian and Black African women than in White European or Black Caribbean women," the authors write.
“The finding that older age and higher BMI interact with racial group in relation to the prevalence of GDM emphasises the important public health message of healthy eating and weight control, which is particularly crucial in women of South Asian and Black African racial origin,” the authors conclude.
