A fasting blood glucose level of 102 mg/dL is slightly above the normal range, which is typically 70-99 mg/dL. Here’s what it means:

  • Normal: 70-99 mg/dL
  • Prediabetes: 100-125 mg/dL
  • Diabetes: 126 mg/dL or higher

A reading of 102 mg/dL falls into the prediabetes range. It’s not extremely high, but it indicates that your blood sugar levels are higher than normal and you may be at risk for developing type 2 diabetes.

Next Steps:

  • Consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
  • Consider lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management to help lower your blood sugar levels.
  • You may need additional tests, such as an A1C test, to get a clearer picture of your blood sugar control over time.
