After gestational diabetes: glucose test at 4–12 weeks

Only in specific medical situations

Usually 4w–2m 23d after the birth

What it is

75 g test to see if it resolved; then a yearly glucose or HbA1c for life (up to half develop type 2 within 10 years — walking and strength training cut that a lot).
