There are a dozen tests needed to ensure the health of a mother and her child. Request A Test offers the convenient and affordable Gestational Glucose Tolerance Test in Albany, .

Results from these tests can aid in diagnosing gestational diabetes. Nearly 10% of pregnancies in the United States are affected by gestational diabetes. Insulin is a hormone that helps the body process glucose (sugar) into energy. Sometimes during pregnancy, hormones that contribute to the baby's development make it difficult for the body to produce enough insulin or properly use insulin. This causes blood sugar to become elevated.

The most common time to take this test is when a woman is 24-28 weeks pregnant. Earlier testing may be recommended for women with an increased risk.
