What is a Glucose Tolerance Test?
A glucose tolerance test is a standard test used to diagnose gestational diabetes, a type of diabetes that develops during pregnancy. The test measures your body's ability to process sugar (glucose) and is typically done between 24 and 28 weeks of pregnancy.
Why is it Essential to Have the Test Done?
Gestational diabetes can cause complications for you and your baby if left untreated. Having the test done will ensure that any potential issues are caught and treated early so that you can have a healthy pregnancy.
What Does The Test Require?
The test requires the expectant mother to fast for at least 8 hours before the test and consume a sugary drink. Blood samples will then be taken at specific intervals (1 hour, 2 hours, or 3 hours) to track the body's response to the sugar.
