HbA1c reflects your average blood sugar over the past 2â3 months, so what you ate in the last few days wonât significantly change the result. Occasional sweets or outside food in the last week wonât distort the test â but if such eating has been frequent across months, that will show up. Since you also have thyroid issues and PCOS, both can increase risks of insulin resistance, making HbA1c monitoring important.
Next Steps
Get the HbA1c as planned, check fasting sugar if needed, and discuss with your doctor whether additional hormonal or metabolic tests are required. For a personalised review and risk assessment, book a consult on Practo or visit my clinic in Dwarka.
Yes it affects your hba1c results it monitors 3month of blood sugar
But if you have done work out or any physical activity then it will not affect your results
