My gynac asked me to get the ogtt done next week and im honestly clueless. Do we have to come fasting and then drink that sweet glucose thing? How many times they take blood na? Someone who has done it pls share how the whole process goes.
Oh, the OGTT is really important to check for gestational diabetes. My doc explained it all very clearly before the test. I think it's best you ask your gynac exactly what to expect and any pre-test instructions they have. Every doctor has slightly different protocols, so safety first.
OMG, the OGTT! 😅 It's super sweet, so be prepared! They'll take your blood, then you drink the glucose solution, and then more blood draws. It's totally fine, just a little boring waiting around. You got this! 💪
Yaar, this OGTT test is an essential one, so dont try to skip it. Some places charge more, so check with a few labs for prices if your hospital doesn't have its own lab. Make sure to factor in all these test costs when planning your pregnancy budget. It's a bit tedious but important.
OGTT is basically the glucose tolerance test. They will ask you to fast overnight, then take a blood sample, then make you drink a very sweet glucose solution, and then take blood samples again after 1 hour and 2 hours. Just make sure you follow the fasting rules properly, otherwise result wrong aa jayega. Dont worry, it's a common test.
My saas told me to carry a lemon or something sour for after the OGTT test, to cut the sweetness, haha. Basically, you go empty stomach, they take blood, you drink a sweet drink, then more blood tests. My MIL said all pregnant women go through this only, so dont worry too much.
OGTT? Oh god, that sugary drink! 😂 It felt like drinking a whole bottle of Fanta at once, haha! But it's totally manageable. Just brace yourself for the sweetness, aur baaki sab lab waale dekh lenge. You'll be fine!
Hi there! OGTT is a routine test in pregnancy, usually done around 24-28 weeks. You'll need to fast for 8-10 hours. The lab will give you a glucose drink, and then they'll take blood samples at specific intervals. It's to check your sugar levels. Just relax, it's a simple procedure.
Haan, OGTT is normal. My doc told me to not eat or drink anything after 10 PM the night before. Then in the morning, I went to the lab, they took blood, gave me that glucose syrup, and then again blood after 1 and 2 hours. Just carry a small snack for after the test, you'll be hungry!
OGTT is a very important test for your baby's health. Please make sure to follow all instructions from your doctor precisely. Don't take any chances, just follow what they say for the fasting and everything. Sending you lots of positive vibes.
