Abstract
Objective: In this study, we aimed to investigate the demographic findings and the reasons for not accepting the oral glucose tolerance test during pregnancy.
Method: This study was carried out on the pregnants in Nigde University Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinic. The study was performed with pregnants to whom OGTT was recommended in the 24-28 gestational weeks, but who did not accept the test. Pregnant women were asked questionnaires prepared by our clinic and the answers were recorded.
Frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, Kruskal-wallis and Mann-Whitney U test and Spearman correlation analysis were used for data analysis.
Results: A total of 299 pregnant women were included in the study. Mean age of the pregnant women was 26.88 ± 5.59 years. Mean gestational week was 25.4 ± 3.12. When the reasons of not having OGTT in pregnant women who had OGTT in their previous pregnancies are examined, 42.9% thought the test was unnecessary, 4.3% thought it was difficult to perform the test, 24.5% said they read news about the harmful effects of the test in the press, 12.3% said because the doctor did not recommend the test, 12.3% said they did not have regular follow-up, 3.7% stated that they did not take the test because they were not informed sufficiently about the test.
Conclusions: In conclusion, this study is an important study in terms of revealing the prejudices of pregnant women who applied to our clinic in Nigde province, even though there are few subjects.

Abstract
Amaç: Bu çalışmamız da gebelikte glukoz yükleme testini kabul etmeyen olguların demografik bulguları ile testi kabul etmeme nedenlerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Yöntem: Bu çalışma Niğde Üniversitesi Kadın Hastalıkları ve Doğum Polikliniğine başvuran, 24-28. gebelik haftalarında OGTT önerilen, ancak testi kabul etmeyen gebelerle yapıldı. Gebelere kliniğimiz tarafından oluşturulan anket sorular soruldu ve cevaplar kaydedildi. Verilerin analizinde frekans, yüzde, ortalama, standart sapma, Kruskal-wallis ve Mann-whitney U testi ve Spearman korelasyon analizi kullanıldı.
Bulgular: Çalışmaya toplam 299 gebe dahil edildi. Gebelerin yaş ortalaması 26.88±5.59 idi. Ortalama gebelik haftası 25.4±3.12 idi. Önce ki gebeliklerinde OGTT yaptıran gebelerin şimdi ki gebeliğinde OGTT yaptırmama nedenleri incelendiğinde %42.9’si testin gereksiz olduğunu düşündüğü için, %4.3’ü testin uygulanmasının zor olduğunu düşündüğü için, %24.5’i basın da testin zararlı olduğu söylendiği için, %12.3’ü doktoru tarafından testin önerilmediği için, %12.3 düzenli takiplerinin yaptırmadığı için, %3.7 test hakkında yeterince bilgilendirilmediği için testi yaptırmadığını ifade etti.
Sonuç: Sonuç olarak bu çalışma az sayıda denekle olsa da Niğde ilimiz de kliniğimize başvuran gebelerin şeker yükleme testine bakışlarını ve ön yargılarını ortaya koyması açısından önemli bir çalışmadır.
