General Information

After oral administration of large amounts of glucose in healthy subjects, insulin is released immediately and reaches a maximum after about 30-60 minutes. When we have enough insulin to metabolize glucose at the beginning of the test, glucose levels return to normal in about 3 hours.

Insufficient secretion of insulin or peripheral insulin resistance will lead to a significant increase in blood glucose.

When determining basal (fasting) or postprandial blood glucose, the test can confirm or deny the diagnostics of diabetes.

When should we take the test?

  • Fasting blood sugar>> 126 mg / dL (> = 6,99 mmol / L);
  • Family history of diabetes;
  • Obesity;
  • History of recurrent infections (skin or urinary tract infections);
  • Unexplained episodes of hypoglycemia;
  • Patients with miscarriages, premature births, stillbirths, or macrosomias;
  • Transient glycosuria or hyperglycemia during pregnancy after surgery, trauma, stress, or myocardial infarction.
