A glucose level of 102 mg/dL can be interpreted as follows:

  • Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS): A fasting glucose level of 102 mg/dL is slightly above the normal range (70-99 mg/dL) but falls within the prediabetes range (100-125 mg/dL). It indicates that your blood sugar is higher than normal but not high enough to be classified as diabetes.
  • Non-Fasting Blood Sugar: If this reading is not taken after fasting, it may still be considered normal, as blood sugar levels can fluctuate throughout the day.

What to Do:

  • If this is a fasting result, consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation, such as an A1C test or oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT).
  • Consider lifestyle changes like a balanced diet, regular exercise, and weight management to help lower your blood sugar levels.

Note: Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
