GlossaryHemoglobin A1c (Glycosylated Hemoglobin)

measures average blood sugar levels over the past three months

Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is a form of hemoglobin that is chemically linked to glucose. It is used as a marker to measure the average blood sugar levels over the past two to three months. This test is crucial for diagnosing and monitoring diabetes, as higher HbA1c levels indicate poorer blood sugar control.
