About the Hemoglobin A1C Testing
The hemoglobin A1c test measures the percentage of hemoglobin in red blood cells that has glucose attached to it, which reflects average blood sugar over roughly the previous two to three months. It is used to screen for diabetes and prediabetes, to monitor blood sugar control in people with diabetes, and to estimate how well a treatment plan is working. Because it reflects a longer window than a single glucose reading, it is not affected by what a person ate that day. The result is a screening and monitoring tool interpreted by a healthcare provider.
Who this test may be right for
- Adults being screened for diabetes or prediabetes
- People with diabetes who need to monitor blood sugar control
- Individuals with a family history of diabetes
- Those with risk factors such as obesity, high blood pressure, or metabolic syndrome
- Anyone whose healthcare provider wants to assess long-term glucose control
What this test measures
- Hemoglobin A1c (glycated hemoglobin) The percentage of hemoglobin bound to glucose, reflecting average blood sugar over about two to three months.
Before your visit
- No fasting is required for a hemoglobin A1c test
- The sample can be collected at any time of day
- Tell the lab about conditions that affect red blood cells, such as recent transfusion or some anemias
- Follow any instructions provided with your order
Understanding your results
A higher hemoglobin A1c reflects a higher average blood sugar over the preceding months, while a lower value suggests better average glucose control. Results are generally grouped into ranges that indicate normal, prediabetes, or diabetes-level average glucose, though the exact categories are determined by a healthcare provider. A1c can be affected by conditions that change red blood cell lifespan, so it is interpreted with other information. Discuss your A1c result with a healthcare provider, who can explain what it means for you.
