# Hemoglobin (Hb) A1c With GlycoMark® Reflex

> This test measures your average blood sugar levels over the past few months and evaluates recent sugar spikes that occur after meals. It helps show how well your body is managing glucose over different timeframes, specifically highlighting short-term fluctuations that a standard long-term test might miss. This information helps doctors distinguish between stable blood sugar control and patterns of frequent, hidden spikes. However, this test does not diagnose the specific type of diabetes or replace the need for daily blood sugar monitoring at home.
