/WHAT_IT_IS
Fasting glucose measures your blood sugar after 8+ hours without food. It's the simplest screen for diabetes and insulin resistance.
/NORMAL_RANGE
Reference: 70–99 mg/dL. 100–125 = prediabetes. ≥126 on two occasions = diabetes.
What does high Glucose mean?
- +Insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, stress hyperglycemia, glucocorticoid use.
What does low Glucose mean?
- +Insulin overdose (in diabetics), reactive hypoglycemia, prolonged fasting.
/ON_TRT
TRT generally improves insulin sensitivity and lowers fasting glucose modestly. If your glucose is rising on TRT, weight gain or insulin resistance is the more likely culprit. Sleep apnea — which TRT can worsen — is another reason.
