NCT ID NCT07241221

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether taking myo-inositol (a natural supplement) during pregnancy can improve health outcomes for babies born to mothers with type 2 diabetes. About 182 pregnant women will take either myo-inositol plus folic acid or folic acid alone from early pregnancy until delivery. The goal is to see if the supplement helps babies be born at a healthy weight, at full term, and without needing intensive care.

What this could lead to

If it works, this could point toward a simple supplement to help babies of mothers with type 2 diabetes be born healthier and at full term.
