Early detection and control of this condition is key to maintaining health and quality of life. In the medical laboratory <a href=\"https:\/\/medilab.km.ua\/en\/\">Medilab<\/a> you can take a comprehensive test to diagnose and monitor diabetes. This complex includes three main indicators: glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" title=\"C-peptide (C-Peptide)\" href=\"https:\/\/medilab.km.ua\/en\/analysis\/biochemical-blood-tests\/diabetes-diagnosis\/c-peptide-c-peptide\/\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"213\">C-peptide (C-Peptide)<\/a> and insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR).<\/p>\n<h2>Main indicators of a comprehensive examination<\/h2>\n<h3>1. <strong>Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Glycated hemoglobin shows the average blood glucose level over the past 2\u20133 months. This indicator helps assess how well diabetes is controlled.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HbA1c norm:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul data-spread=\"false\">\n<li>Up to 5.8% is a normal level.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>High HbA1c levels indicate poor blood sugar control, which increases the risk of complications.<\/p>\n<h3>2. <strong>C-peptide (C-Peptide)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>C-peptide is an important indicator of the body&#039;s insulin production. It helps determine whether the pancreas is producing enough insulin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>C-peptide norm:<\/strong> 1.04\u20134.8 ng\/ml.<\/p>\n<p>A decreased level indicates insulin deficiency, which is typical of type 1 diabetes, while an increased level may indicate insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes.<\/p>\n<h3>3. <strong>Insulin resistance assessment (HOMA-IR index)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The HOMA-IR index allows you to assess the sensitivity of cells to insulin. It is calculated based on fasting blood glucose and insulin levels.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HOMA-IR index norm:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul data-spread=\"false\">\n<li>Up to 3.0 \u2013 normal insulin sensitivity.<\/li>\n<li>3.0\u20135.0 \u2013 moderate insulin resistance.<\/li>\n<li>Above 5.0 \u2013 high insulin resistance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">How to prepare for tests<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To get accurate results, you must follow a few simple rules:<\/p>\n<ol start=\"1\" data-spread=\"false\">\n<li><strong>Glycated hemoglobin:<\/strong> No special preparation is required, the test can be taken at any time of the day.<\/li>\n<li><strong>C-peptide:<\/strong> Take the test on an empty stomach, preferably after 8\u201310 hours of fasting.<\/li>\n<li><strong>HOMA-IR:<\/strong> The analysis is performed in the morning on an empty stomach. It is important to refrain from eating and drinking (except water) for 8\u201312 hours.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>When to see a doctor<\/h2>\n<p>It is recommended to undergo a comprehensive examination if you experience the following symptoms:<\/p>\n<ul data-spread=\"false\">\n<li>Constant thirst and frequent urination.<\/li>\n<li>Rapid fatigue.<\/li>\n<li>Unexplained weight loss or gain.<\/li>\n<li>Poor wound healing.<\/li>\n<li>Blurred vision.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Advantages of examination at Medilab<\/h2>\n<p>Laboratory <a href=\"https:\/\/medilab.km.ua\/en\/\">Medilab<\/a> offers:<\/p>\n<ol start=\"1\" data-spread=\"false\">\n<li><strong>Accuracy and speed<\/strong> \u2013 modern equipment and a professional approach guarantee reliable results.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Convenience<\/strong> \u2013 the ability to make online appointments and comfortable conditions for patients.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Comprehensive approach<\/strong> \u2013 all necessary tests can be taken in one place.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Diabetes control starts with a proper diagnosis.
