key point here...
one hour GTT is giving high glucose level..
next step is ....3 hr GTT....
HPL antagonizes insulin...HPL only increases after 26 weeks.
so any women who has a high BS before 26 wks is diabetic...

Hba1c will tell us if she is a diabetic or a case of GDM. Elevated Hba1c will indicate a case of Preconceptional elevated blood glucose and DM.
