    What is a C-Peptide - Fasting Test?

    The C-peptide Fasting test measures the amount of C-peptide in your blood after a fasting period, usually requiring you to avoid eating or drinking for 8 to 12 hours beforehand. This test is crucial for accurately determining how much insulin your body is producing. Insulin, produced by the pancreas, is essential for regulating blood glucose by allowing it to enter cells for energy. As insulin is made, the pancreas also releases C-peptide in equal amounts. While C-peptide itself doesn’t affect blood glucose, it stays in the bloodstream longer than insulin, making it easier to measure. The C-peptide test is used to assess insulin production, distinguish between natural insulin and insulin from injections, diagnose the type of diabetes, manage treatment, identify causes of low blood sugar, and monitor pancreatic tumours.

    If you’re in Gurgaon and have been experiencing low blood sugar, a C-peptide test could help determine the cause and guide your diabetes management.
