HbA1c Test in Mandi Bahauddin
Shows your average blood sugar over the last three months — the gold standard for diagnosing and monitoring diabetes.
Why this test is done
A single fasting sugar reading only tells you about that morning. HbA1c tells you how your sugar has behaved for three months, which is why doctors use it both to diagnose diabetes and to judge whether treatment is working. If you are diabetic, this test every three months is the most important number you can track.
What is included
- HbA1c percentage
- Estimated average glucose (eAG)
- Interpretation against ADA cut-offs
How to prepare
Fasting: No fasting needed
Sample: 3 ml blood in an EDTA (purple-top) tube
Report time: Same day
Timings: 8:00 AM – 10:00 PM, seven days a week — no appointment required.
Bring your doctor's prescription and any previous reports of the same test. Comparing today's result with an older one is often more useful than the number on its own, so we keep your history on file and print the comparison where it helps.
