Glucose, 1-Hour (after 50 g Oral Glucose) details
What Glucose, 1-Hour (after 50 g Oral Glucose) shows
This test measures your blood glucose one hour after you drink a solution containing 50 g of glucose. It is the usual first-step screen for gestational diabetes, a form of high blood sugar that develops during pregnancy, and it typically does not require fasting. It shows how well your body clears a sugar load at a time when pregnancy hormones make insulin less effective. A higher result suggests your body may not be handling glucose well and usually leads to a longer, diagnostic glucose tolerance test. A result in the expected range is reassuring. A screen alone does not diagnose gestational diabetes, and the cut-off used depends on the protocol your clinician follows.
