how to tell if you're pre diabetic

To determine if you are prediabetic, you should look for the following signs and consider getting tested:

• A1C Test: This blood test measures your average blood sugar levels over the past 3 months. A result between 5.7% and 6.4% indicates prediabetes.
• Fasting Blood Sugar Test: A fasting blood sugar level between 100 mg/dL and 125 mg/dL suggests prediabetes.
• Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT): A blood sugar level between 140 mg/dL and 199 mg/dL after 2 hours indicates prediabetes.

Risk Factors:

• Being overweight or obese.
• Having a family history of type 2 diabetes.
• Being physically inactive.
• Having high blood pressure or high cholesterol.

If you have any of these risk factors or symptoms, consult your healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and management plan.
