Glucose Tolerance Test

What is a Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT)?

 A Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT) is a diagnostic procedure used to assess how your body processes glucose, or sugar. It's an essential tool in detecting diabetes and prediabetes. During a GTT, you'll consume a specific amount of glucose, and we'll monitor how your body handles it. This test helps us understand your blood sugar regulation, providing valuable insights into your health. 

1 hour or 2 hour glucose tolerance tests

What's the Difference Between the 1 and 2 Hour GTT?

 Depending on your healthcare provider's recommendation and your medical history, you may be offered either a 1-hour or 2-hour GTT.

  • 1-Hour GTT: This is a shorter test that measures your body's immediate response to glucose. It's often used for screening purposes.
  • 2-Hour GTT: This test extends the monitoring period to assess how your body handles glucose over a longer period. It provides more comprehensive data and is often used for diagnosis and monitoring.

Blood Test for Glucose Tolerance Test

A GTT typically involves the following steps:


  1. Fasting: You may be asked to fast for a specific period before the test (usually overnight).
  2. Baseline Blood Draw: We'll draw a blood sample to measure your baseline blood sugar levels .
  3. Glucose Consumption: You'll drink a glucose solution.
  4. Periodic Blood Draws: We'll take additional blood samples at prescribed intervals, depending on whether it's a 1-hour or 2-hour GTT.
  5. Observation: You'll be monitored during the test.


It's essential to follow the instructions provided to ensure accurate results.
