Original Article: PDF OnlyDiabetes and Graves Disease Complicating PregnancyHARE, JOHN W. MD; KITZMILLER, JOHN L. MD, FACOGAuthor Information From the Joslin Clinic, Boston Hospital for Women, and Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts Obstetrics & Gynecology: June 1978 - Volume 51 - Issue 6 - p 655-658 Free Abstract We report here six pregnancies in 5 women with juvenile diabetes and Graves disease. The diabetes was managed in a standard fashion. The Graves disease was managed with propylthiouracil when required. The course of neither the diabetes nor Graves disease was different than expected. When established guidelines for therapy are followed the two have no interaction with one another. One infant was mildly hypothyroid. None developed neonatal Graves disease. Four of the infants had hyperbilirubinemia. © 1978 The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists
