Fasting glucose measures your blood sugar after at least 8 hours without eating, and it's one of the primary tests used to screen for and diagnose prediabetes and diabetes, since fasting removes the immediate influence of recent food intake and reflects your body's baseline glucose regulation. Elevated fasting glucose reflects reduced insulin sensitivity or insufficient insulin production, and results are interpreted against established cutoffs for normal, prediabetes, and diabetes. It's often ordered alongside HbA1c, which reflects longer-term average blood sugar, to give both a snapshot and a trend-based picture of glucose control.

Single marker
$5.99
This test measures fasting blood glucose, which reflects the body's baseline glucose level after a period without food. Fasting blood glucose levels are used for the diagnosis and treatment of carbohydrate metabolic disorders.
Panel
$362.50
The Comprehensive Female Panel measures the levels of several hormones and other markers to provide a comprehensive assessment of a patient's health.
$8.99
This test is used to screen for gestational diabetes. A reading of 135 mg/dL or higher suggests the need for a comprehensive gestational glucose tolerance test, conducted while fasting, to confirm if gestational diabetes is present.
$8.99
This test is used to screen for gestational diabetes. A reading of 140 mg/dL or higher suggests the need for a comprehensive gestational glucose tolerance test, conducted while fasting, to confirm if gestational diabetes is present.
$8.99
This test measures blood sugar levels after fasting and again 1 hour after eating. It's particularly important for diagnosing conditions like gestational diabetes in pregnant individuals. If initial results indicate high sugar levels, a more detailed 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test may be recommended to confirm gestational diabetes.
$8.99
This test measures blood sugar levels after fasting and again 2 hours after eating. It's particularly important for diagnosing conditions like gestational diabetes in pregnant individuals. If initial results indicate high sugar levels, a more detailed 3-hour oral glucose tolerance test may be recommended to confirm gestational diabetes.
$12.99
The Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT), Two-hour (Oral WHO Protocol) evaluates the body's ability to metabolize glucose by measuring blood glucose levels before and two hours after consuming a standardized glucose solution. It is used to diagnose glucose intolerance, type 2 diabetes, and gestational diabetes in pregnant women. This test is particularly useful for patients with borderline fasting or postprandial glucose levels and in the investigation of conditions like unexplained hyperglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, and other metabolic abnormalities.
$8.99
This test is primarily used to diagnose diabetes in children and adults who are not pregnant. For pregnant women, a different test is recommended. To get accurate results, patients need to fast overnight and then consume a 75g glucose solution. The amount of glucose for children is adjusted based on their ideal body weight. Diabetes may be diagnosed if the fasting glucose level is equal to or greater than 126 mg/dL, or if the glucose level two hours after consuming the glucose solution is equal to or greater than 200 mg/dL.
$12.99
This test is primarily used to diagnose diabetes in children and adults who are not pregnant. For pregnant women, a different test is recommended. To ensure accurate results, patients need to fast overnight and then consume a 75g glucose solution. A fasting blood sample is taken immediately after. For children, the glucose amount is adjusted to their body weight. Diabetes may be diagnosed if fasting glucose levels are ≥126 mg/dL or if glucose levels are ≥200 mg/dL two hours after consuming the glucose.
$17.49
For appropriate interpretation of this test, the patient must fast overnight and ingest a 75 g load of glucose, immediately after a fasting specimen is obtained. (for children, the glucose load is 1.75 g/kg of body weight, up to 75). The diagnosis of diabetes is made if glucose exceeds 200 mg/dL in the 2 hour specimen and in any preceding specimen.
$21.49
For appropriate interpretation of this test, the patient must fast overnight and ingest a 75 g load of glucose, immediately after a fasting specimen is obtained. (for children, the glucose load is 1.75 g/Kg of body weight, up to 75). The diagnosis of diabetes is made if glucose exceeds 200 mg/dL in the 2 hour specimen and in any preceding specimen.

(for children, the glucose load is 1.75 g/Kg of body weight, up to 75). The diagnosis of diabetes is made if glucose exceeds 200 mg/dL in the 2 hour specimen and in any preceding specimen.
$25.99
This test is used for the routine diagnosis of diabetes in children and the non- pregnant adult. For pregnant females use test code 6745. For appropriate interpretation of this test, the patient must fast overnight and ingest a 75 g load of glucose, immediately after a fasting specimen is obtained. (for children, the glucose load is 1.75 g/kg of body weight, up to 75). The diagnosis of diabetes is made if glucose exceeds 200 mg/dL in the 2 hour specimen and in any preceding specimen.
$29.99
For appropriate interpretation of this test, the patient must fast overnight and ingest a 75 g load of glucose immediately after a fasting specimen is obtained. (for children, the glucose load is 1.75 g/kg of body weight, up to 75). The diagnosis of diabetes is made if glucose exceeds 200 mg/dL in the 2 hour specimen and in any preceding specimen.
$12.99
This test measures plasma glucose levels to help diagnose and manage carbohydrate metabolic disorders. It's particularly useful for identifying conditions of abnormally high (hyperglycemia) or low (hypoglycemia) blood sugar levels.

Today, more and more people are turning to tools like ChatGPT and asking a simple question:“What blood tests should I do to check my health?” The problem is – most answers are based on standard medical protocols. These protocols are designed to detect disease, not to identify early imbalances. As a result, many important markers…
