A normal hemoglobin A1C level is the same for both men and women. According to the CDC and other medical sources:

  • Normal: Below 5.7%
  • Prediabetes: 5.7% to 6.4%
  • Diabetes: 6.5% or above

For most adults, including women, an A1C level below 5.7% is considered normal. However, individual targets may vary based on factors like age, overall health, and medical history. Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
