Pelvic girdle pain (PGP), which is a common musculoskeletal problem of pregnancy, and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), which is diagnosed at the end of the second trimester and at the beginning of the third trimester, occur in a parallel time period. The addition of hyperglycemia to the physiological changes in pregnancy stimulates a new series of cycles and contributes to inflammation, and it is predicted that the presence of GDM may trigger the pain intensity of PGP. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the effect of GDM on PGP symptom severity (pain).
