About the Test
  • Hemoglobin A1C

The HbA1c test is essential for diagnosing and managing diabetes by monitoring long-term glucose control. High HbA1c levels suggest chronic hyperglycemia, which can lead to symptoms like excessive thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, and blurred vision. The test helps in assessing the risk of diabetes-related complications and guiding adjustments in treatment or lifestyle to better manage blood sugar levels.
