Diabetes Testing
Screen for type 2 diabetes or prediabetes with fast, accurate HbA1c or finger-prick tests.
About Diabetes Testing
Diabetes affects how your body processes glucose. Left untreated, it can cause serious complications. Early detection through testing helps manage or even reverse prediabetes.
Test Options
- HbA1c Test: Measures average blood sugar over 3 months (no fasting needed).
- Finger-Prick Test: Instant glucose level reading (fasting required).
- Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (by referral): For gestational diabetes.
Interpreting Results
HbA1c results:
- Normal: Below 42 mmol/mol.
- Prediabetes: 42–47 mmol/mol.
- Diabetes: 48 mmol/mol or higher.
Who Should Get Tested?
Adults over 45, or those with:
- Symptoms like thirst, frequent urination, or fatigue.
- BMI over 25 or family history of diabetes.
- High blood pressure or gestational diabetes history.
