Description

The C-Peptide Test measures the level of C-peptide in your blood, a protein fragment released when insulin is produced by the pancreas. This test is an important tool for evaluating insulin production, helping to distinguish between type 1 and type 2 diabetes, and monitoring insulin therapy. It can also assist in assessing pancreatic health and kidney function in diabetic patients.

What This Test Helps Detect:

  • Insulin Production Levels: Determines how much insulin your body is making.

  • Type 1 vs. Type 2 Diabetes: Helps differentiate between the two conditions.

  • Insulin Resistance: Identifies potential resistance or beta cell dysfunction.

  • Treatment Monitoring: Useful for evaluating ongoing insulin therapy.

Who Should Take This Test:

  • Individuals diagnosed with diabetes.

  • Patients under insulin therapy.

  • People with suspected insulin resistance or pancreatic dysfunction.
