GTT 2nd Price in Bangladesh

What is GTT 2nd?

The Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT) evaluates how well the body processes glucose, commonly used to diagnose diabetes or gestational diabetes. For a 2-hour GTT, fasting for 8–12 hours is required.

A fasting blood sample is taken, followed by consumption of a glucose solution. Blood samples are drawn at the 1-hour and 2-hour marks to measure glucose levels.

Elevated readings may indicate impaired glucose tolerance or diabetes. Risks are minimal but may include dizziness, nausea, or bruising.

Results are interpreted against standardized thresholds. Factors like stress, illness, or medications can influence results, so proper preparation and clear communication with a healthcare provider are essential.

What to expect & how to prepare

GTT 2nd is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis. Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
• Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
• Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
• Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your GTT 2nd result rather than self-diagnosing.
