    What is a HOMA-IR, Insulin Resistance Index Test?

    The Homeostasis Model Assessment (HOMA) of Insulin Resistance (IR) is used to estimate insulin resistance by measuring baseline insulin and glucose levels. Insulin is necessary to manage blood sugar, and when the body becomes resistant to insulin, it may produce more to maintain control. Insulin resistance might not be immediately noticeable if the pancreas produces enough insulin, but over time it can lead to high blood sugar and symptoms such as increased thirst, frequent urination, hunger, blurred vision, headaches, infections, and slow-healing sores. If you experience any of these symptoms, a HOMA-IR test is advisable.

    If you are Mumbai having suspected symptoms of insulin resistance, you should consider undergoing the HOMA-IR test to identify and manage the condition effectively.
