Anxiety and Depression Levels in Women with Hyperglycemia in Pregnancy: A Comparative Study with Normoglycemic Women

Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study is to investigate the anxiety and depression levels of women with hyperglycemia in pregnancy and to compare them with normoglycemic women at similar gestational weeks. Materials and Methods: Diabetic pregnant women (pregestational diabetes mellitus, gestational diabetes mellitus) at 32-34 weeks and normoglycemic pregnant women at similar gestational weeks were evaluated with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale to determine anxiety and depression levels. Results: In our study patients with fetal complications associated with poorly controlled diabetes, such as large for gestational age (p: 0.04) and polyhydramnios (p: 0.03), exhibited significantly lower levels of anxiety symptoms. No significant difference was found between the diabetes group and the control group in terms of anxiety and depression symptoms Conclusion: The fact that anxiety symptoms were significantly less in polyhydramnios and large for gestational age patients, which are the result of poorly controlled diabetes, suggests that hyperglycemia may have an impact on anxiety levels.
