Diabetes is one of the most common health conditions worldwide, but its impact on women is often overlooked. In this episode of Women’s Health Matter, we explore how diabetes affects women differently, the role of hormones throughout life, and the growing concern of gestational diabetes during pregnancy.

Our discussion covers the causes and warning signs of gestational diabetes, the long-term risk of developing Type 2 diabetes after pregnancy, and how major life stages such as puberty, pregnancy, and menopause can influence diabetes risk and management. We also share practical lifestyle strategies that can help women prevent or effectively manage diabetes while balancing the demands of everyday life.

Join us for an informative conversation that empowers women to take charge of their health through awareness, prevention, and proactive care.
