Abstract
We present a case history of 31 years old female patient with gestational diabetes that was diagnosed in the 12th week of pregnancy. The patient had a hypophysectomy due to adenoma in childhood and she used to take corticosteroid and thyroidal supplementation.
The satisfactory control of unstable diabetes with common doses or short-term acting insulin using intensified insulin regimen was achieved by regimen measures and by dietary regimen corrections based on dividing the total amount of carbohydrates into multiple portions and by prolonging the interval between insulin administration and meals.
