Insulin Resistance Test

Unisex

GetTested’s Metabolic Response Blood Test provides insight into key blood sugar and metabolic markers using a home finger-prick sample.

The test measures glucose, HbA1c and a fasting metabolic hormone marker. These results are used together to calculate HOMA-IR, a commonly used metabolic index.

Your sample is collected at home using a finger-prick blood collection kit and analysed by a CLIA-certified laboratory, with secure digital results.

About Insulin Resistance Test

What your metabolic markers can indicate

Blood sugar regulation involves several measurable markers, including current glucose levels, longer-term glucose patterns and fasting metabolic hormone activity.

Glucose reflects blood sugar at the time of sampling, while HbA1c provides an average over time. The additional fasting marker helps provide further context for how the body is managing blood sugar.

By combining these markers, HOMA-IR can be calculated to provide additional insight into metabolic response patterns.

Looking at these markers together offers a more complete view than assessing a single value alone.

How It Works

You collect a small blood sample at home using a finger-prick method. The sample is then sent to a CLIA-certified laboratory for analysis, and your results are delivered digitally once testing is complete.

Dried Blood Spot Collection

The test uses a dried blood spot sample. A few drops of blood are collected from your fingertip and placed on a collection card, which is then left to dry before being sent to the laboratory.

This method offers a convenient alternative to traditional blood sampling.
