About the test

This test is designed to screen for gestational diabetes by measuring blood sugar levels. A result of 140 mg/dL or higher suggests the need for a more detailed glucose tolerance test, done while fasting, to confirm if gestational diabetes is present.

Who might consider it:

This screening is typically recommended for pregnant individuals to check for high blood sugar levels, which could indicate gestational diabetes.
