This test is crucial for detecting diabetes and gestational diabetes (a type that occurs during pregnancy).
The GTT - 75 gm Glucose Tolerance Test is a diagnostic procedure designed to evaluate how well your body processes glucose, identifying potential issues with blood sugar regulation. For this test, you’ll consume a 75-gram glucose solution, and blood samples will be taken at intervals to measure your body’s glucose response over time.
The GTT - 75 gm test helps in early diagnosis of diabetes, allowing timely intervention and management. For pregnant women, it’s vital in detecting gestational diabetes, which, if untreated, can lead to complications for both mother and baby. Diagnosing glucose intolerance early can reduce the risk of long-term health complications like cardiovascular disease and neuropathy.
a) Pregnant Women: Especially during the 24th-28th week of pregnancy, to check for gestational diabetes.
b) Individuals with Risk Factors for Diabetes: Those with a family history of diabetes, obesity, or high blood pressure.
c) People with Unexplained Symptoms: Symptoms like excessive thirst, frequent urination, or fatigue can indicate abnormal glucose levels.
