Drugs in pregnancy. Endocrine disease (including diabetes).
This chapter reviews the treatment of endocrine disease in pregnancy, including diabetes mellitus, hypo- and hyperthyroidism, adrenal and pituitary disorders, and hyper- and hypoparathyroidism. Pregnancy in some of these disorders is relatively rare, so that management is often based on limited information and clinical judgement rather than on strong evidence-based criteria.
