About diabetes blood tests
Fasting glucose is a single reading taken after a fast. HbA1c reflects average blood glucose over the previous two to three months, so it varies less from day to day than a single glucose reading. Fasting insulin is used to assess insulin resistance.
Who these tests are commonly ordered for
Doctors commonly order these tests for people with a family history of diabetes, excess weight or high blood pressure, for pregnant women as part of screening for gestational diabetes, and for people with symptoms such as excessive thirst, frequent urination, unexplained fatigue, blurred vision or slow-healing wounds. A doctor can advise whether and how often to test.
