Plasma glucose 2 hrs after lunch Price in Bangladesh

What is Plasma glucose 2 hrs after lunch?

This test measures blood sugar levels two hours after eating to assess how the body processes glucose. Preparation involves fasting before the test, typically in the morning, and eating a regular lunch.

Two hours after eating, a blood sample is drawn. Risks are minimal but may include slight discomfort or bruising at the needle site.

After the test, no special care is needed. Results help diagnose diabetes or prediabetes; elevated levels suggest impaired glucose tolerance.

Conditions like insulin resistance, stress, or certain medications can affect 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.
