Congratulations on taking a step toward better health! Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is a key indicator used to measure your average blood sugar levels over the past 2–3 months, reflecting how well your body is managing glucose. Unlike fasting blood sugar tests, HbA1c provides a long-term overview of your blood sugar control. This level is measured as a percentage, with normal values typically falling below 5.7%. To assess your HbA1c level, you'll need a simple blood test conducted by a healthcare professional or through at-home test kits available in pharmacies. Regular monitoring is important for detecting early signs of diabetes or for managing the condition.
