Pregnancy is a time of profound transformation, not only physically and emotionally but also in navigating health challenges like gestational diabetes. Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs) have become invaluable in managing this condition, offering real-time insights into glucose levels. However, understanding the intricacies of CGM data, particularly the phenomenon known as "compression lows," is crucial for accurate diabetes management.
How CGMs Work
To understand compression lows, we must first talk about how CGMs work. These devices measure glucose levels not directly from the blood but from the interstitial fluid—the fluid that surrounds the cells of the tissues.
