About This Test
Unlike a standard blood sugar test, which reflects your glucose level at a single moment, the A1c test measures your average blood sugar over the past two to three months by looking at how much sugar has attached to your red blood cells. This makes it a useful tool for screening for prediabetes and diabetes, monitoring how well existing diabetes is being managed, and tracking changes over time. Because it reflects an average rather than a single reading, no fasting is required.
