Programmazione di gravidanza e screening del diabete gestazionale nelle donne sottoposte ad intervento di chirurgia bariatrica

Pregnancy planning and gestational diabetes screening in women with a history of bariatric surgery

Bariatric surgery improves metabolic health and reduces pregnancy-related risks such as gestational diabetes and preeclampsia, yet it introduces challenges including nutritional deficiencies and altered glucose regulation. Pregnancy after surgery therefore requires careful planning, individualized nutritional support, and tailored screening strategies, as standard oral glucose tests may be poorly tolerated. A multidisciplinary approach is essential to ensure maternal and fetal safety.
