What is HbA1c?

HbA1c (glycated hemoglobin) is a blood test that measures your average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months. Unlike a fasting glucose test that gives a snapshot, HbA1c provides a broader picture of your blood sugar control.

Normal: Below 5.7%
Pre-diabetes: 5.7% to 6.4%
Diabetes: 6.5% or above

For most people with diabetes, the target HbA1c is below 7%, though this may be adjusted based on individual circumstances.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you have diabetes, HbA1c should be tested every 3 months if your treatment has changed or you're not meeting targets, and every 6 months if your blood sugar is well-controlled. For screening in non-diabetic adults, once every 1-3 years is recommended depending on risk factors.
No, the HbA1c test does not require fasting. It can be done at any time of day regardless of when you last ate, which makes it more convenient than fasting glucose tests.
