FAQ

1. What is HbA1c and why is it important?

HbA1c (Glycated Hemoglobin) is a blood test that shows your average blood sugar (glucose) levels over the past 2–3 months. It's used to diagnose diabetes and monitor how well diabetes is being managed. A high HbA1c means poor blood sugar control, which increases the risk of complications like heart disease, kidney damage, and nerve problems.

2. What is a normal HbA1c level?

Below 5.7% – Normal (non-diabetic range)

5.7% to 6.4% – Prediabetes (higher risk of developing diabetes)

6.5% or higher – Diabetes

For people with diabetes, a target HbA1c is usually below 7%, but this can vary based on age and other health factors.

3. How often should I get an HbA1c test?

If you have diabetes: Every 3 to 6 months, depending on your treatment and control.

If you are at risk for diabetes: Your doctor may recommend testing once a year or more frequently if needed.

If your HbA1c is normal, retesting every 1–3 years may be sufficient.
