What is HbA1c (Glycosylated Haemoglobin)?
HbA1c measures the percentage of haemoglobin coated with sugar, which reflects your average blood glucose over the past 2–3 months rather than a single point in time. It's the gold-standard test for diagnosing diabetes and monitoring how well existing diabetes is controlled, and unlike a fasting sugar test, you don't need to fast for it.
Why is HbA1c (Glycosylated Haemoglobin) done?
- Confirms thalassemia or sickle-cell carrier status after an abnormal haemoglobin (HPLC) screening result.
- Essential for planning prenatal diagnosis or embryo testing when both partners are carriers.
Who may be advised to take HbA1c (Glycosylated Haemoglobin)?
- Couples where both partners are carriers; people with an abnormal HPLC or blood count.
- Pregnant women found to be carriers whose partners need testing.
