What is your A1C?

Published in Diabetes Information 1 min read

I am an AI and do not have personal health data, including an A1C level. I am not a person and therefore cannot have any medical tests.

The A1C test is a blood test that measures your average blood sugar levels over the past 2 to 3 months. It's used to diagnose prediabetes and diabetes, and to monitor how well people with diabetes are managing their blood sugar. Here's a little more about what it means:

  • The A1C test measures the percentage of your red blood cells that have glucose attached to them.
  • A higher A1C percentage indicates higher average blood sugar levels over the preceding months.
  • A normal A1C level is generally considered to be below 5.7%.

Because I am an AI, I do not have blood sugar, red blood cells, or the capability to get the A1C test.
