Plasma glucose 1hr after lunch Price in Bangladesh

What is Plasma glucose 1hr after lunch?

This test measures blood glucose levels one hour after eating to assess how the body processes sugar, helping diagnose diabetes or insulin resistance. Preparation involves eating a normal meal before the test, without fasting.

During the test, a blood sample is taken one hour after lunch. Risks are minimal but may include slight discomfort or bruising at the blood draw site.

After the test, no special care is needed. Results indicate whether glucose levels are within the normal range.

Elevated levels may suggest diabetes or prediabetes. Conditions like stress or certain medications can influence the results.

What to expect & how to prepare

A sample is collected at the centre and analysed in the laboratory. The sample type — blood, urine, stool or another body fluid — depends on the specific test, and the collection staff will tell you which one applies.

• Fasting: only some laboratory tests need fasting, and this varies test by test. Ask the centre whether fasting is required for this specific test when you book, rather than assuming.
• Medication: tell the laboratory about medicines, supplements and recent injections, because some can affect results.
• Requesting slip: bring the doctor's advice or previous reports so the laboratory runs and compares the right test.
• Report timing: turnaround differs between routine and specialised tests — the centre will tell you when your report is ready.

Have a registered doctor interpret the result together with your symptoms rather than self-diagnosing from reference ranges.
