Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a complication in pregnancy, but studies focused on the steroidome in patients with GDM are not available in the public domain. This article evaluates the steroidome in GDM+ and GDM- women and its changes from 24 weeks (± of gestation) to labor. The study included GDM+ ( = 44) and GDM- women ( = 33), in weeks 24-28, 30-36 of gestation and at labor and mixed umbilical blood after delivery.
