How do I convert my blood sugar results?

Blood sugar results can be reported in different units, such as mg/dL (milligrams per deciliter) or mmol/L (millimoles per liter). Here's how you can convert between these units:

• From mg/dL to mmol/L: Divide the mg/dL value by 18. For example, 180 mg/dL ÷ 18 = 10 mmol/L.
• From mmol/L to mg/dL: Multiply the mmol/L value by 18. For example, 10 mmol/L × 18 = 180 mg/dL.

Here’s a quick reference table:

mg/dL mmol/L

70 3.9
126 7.0
154 8.6
180 10.0
240 13.3

Always consult your healthcare provider if you have questions about your blood sugar levels or how to interpret them.
