The symptoms of gestational diabetes vary depending on the severity of the disease. Most cases of gestational diabetes are symptomless and are only detected when high blood sugar levels are found during diabetes screening. Therefore, it is recommended to perform a 75g glucose screening during pregnancy, at the very least, fasting blood sugar should also be checked because most diabetic patients do not notice any symptoms on their own. If the diabetes is more severe, the patient may experience symptoms such as increased thirst, increased appetite, weight loss, and frequent urination.
