The A1C test result is reported as a percentage. The higher the percentage, the higher your blood glucose levels have been. A normal A1C level is below 5.7 percent.

Take a CHOLINESTERASE Test or Take a MACRO PROLACTIN Test

Hi, I just received my blood report, and it shows that I am in the prediabetic range, with an HbA1c level of 6. I would like to consult on what steps I should take to manage this condition.

I have had three pregnancy losses, the first and second pregnancies ended at 6 weeks, and the third ended at 10 weeks due to cardiac failure. My doctor advised both my husband and me to undergo peripheral blood karyotyping to check for any chromosomal abnormalities. I have attached both of our karyotyping reports. Could you please review them and let me know if the results are normal? Additionally, I would really appreciate your guidance on how to plan for a healthy pregnancy in the future.
