    What is a HOMA-IR, Insulin Resistance Index Test?

    The HOMA (Homeostasis Model Assessment) test for Insulin Resistance (IR) estimates insulin resistance using initial plasma insulin and glucose levels.

While symptoms might not be obvious if your pancreas is compensating well, insulin resistance can lead to high blood sugar.

If you experience any of these symptoms, a HOMA-IR test is recommended.
