Patient's question:
On February 22nd, I'm 21 weeks and 2 days pregnant, with a height of 158cm and a weight of 84kg. My pre-pregnancy weight was already above the recommended level at 81kg. The doctor was concerned about potential high-risk factors and tested my glycated hemoglobin, which came back at 10.2 (the normal range is 4-6.4). The doctor recommended an fasting blood glucose test and a 50g glucose tolerance test.Doctor's answer:
Did the hemoglobin A1c test result show 10.2? Different hospitals may use different testing methods, so reference ranges can vary. It's best to follow the reference range provided on the test report.Glycated serum protein reflects blood sugar fluctuations over the past 2-3 weeks but is less stable and prone to larger errors. Generally, hemoglobin A1c is used as a reference. You can monitor your blood sugar more frequently. If the results are consistently within the normal range, there's likely no need to worry, as it probably indicates no diabetes.
Advice: If the urinalysis shows protein, you can refer to the blood test results to determine if there's an infection. A urinary tract ultrasound can also help with diagnosis. If it's a urinary tract infection, follow up after antibiotic treatment. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
