HOMA-IR is a calculation from a fasting glucose and fasting insulin test that estimates insulin resistance. It isn't part of routine health checkups, but doctors use it selectively in people with PCOS, prediabetes, a strong family history of diabetes, or unexplained weight gain.
Next Steps
If your doctor recommended it, one of these factors likely applies to you, so ask what prompted the test and what your result means for your case.
Health Tips
A single HOMA-IR value isn't usually acted on alone. Please discuss this with your physician or endocrinologist so it's read together with your other reports.
