What is it about?
The aetiologies of diabetes insipidus during pregnancy are either specific to pregnancy or gestational diabetes insipidus, or discovered before pregnancy. Gestational DI can occur in the absence of any obstetric pathology, in which case its pathophysiology can be explained by interactions between the placenta and ADH metabolism.

Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a rare condition that complicates around two to three pregnancies out of 100,000 [1]. It is generally revealed by a polyuro-polydipsic syndrome or by serious hydro-electrolytic decompensations, mainly with neurological symptoms.
