Core Tip	To summarize, the use of probiotics and vitamin D supplementation may help in preventing gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in high risk women. Glycemic targets need to be lower than current recommendations. Oral hypoglycemic agents are an effective and safe alternative to insulin in managing GDM. Newer insulins, aspart, lispro and detemir, provide better glycemic control than routinely used insulin. Continuous glucose monitoring systems and insulin pumps may be of use in women who require a very high dose of insulin. Lifestyle interventions in GDM women help to reduce the subsequent development of diabetes. Further studies are required in the field of prevention of GDM for optimizing obstetric outcome.
