An A1c test measures average blood sugar levels over the previous 3 months. It can help diagnose prediabetes or diabetes, or it can help you understand how well you’re managing your blood sugar levels.
A1c results below 5.7% are normal, while results between 5.7%-6.4% indicate prediabetes, and results 6.5% and higher indicate diabetes.
It depends on your individual healthcare needs, but people who have diabetes generally test their A1c twice per year. People with normal A1c results who have diabetes risk factors should generally test A1c every three years, and those with prediabetes should get it tested every one to two years.
Type 2 diabetes is caused when the body isn’t able to make or use insulin (a hormone that helps regulate blood sugar) correctly and blood sugar levels get higher. Extra weight and lack of activity can contribute.
