Answered by Dr. Emily Carter, MD 🩺

A fasting blood glucose level of 102 mg/dL is slightly above the normal range but does not typically indicate diabetes. Here’s a breakdown of blood glucose levels:

Category Fasting Blood Glucose (mg/dL)

Normal Less than 100
Prediabetes 100 to 125
Diabetes 126 or higher

  • 102 mg/dL falls into the prediabetes range, which means your blood sugar is higher than normal but not high enough to be classified as diabetes.
  • It’s important to monitor your levels and consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and advice on lifestyle changes to prevent progression to diabetes.

If you have concerns, consider discussing your results with a doctor for personalized guidance.
