Gestational diabetes among pregnant women before childbirth is on the rise, climbing 27% from 2016 to 2021, according to federal data released Wednesday.
The rate of prepregnancy diabetes mellitus — or PDM — recorded on birth certificates nationwide rose from 8.6 to 10.9 for every 1,000 births over that period, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported.
According to the study of 3,664,292 registered births, the gestational diabetes rate in 2021 rose more sharply as the age and weight of the mothers increased, reflecting long-term risk factors, and was highest among indigenous women. Rates also rose in some states at a significantly higher rate than in others.
The report did not give a reason for the increases, and a CDC spokesperson reached for comment declined to speculate. The CDC reported on March 16 that the number of mothers who died during pregnancy or within six weeks of childbirth surged during the second year of the pandemic.
