The C-peptide test is a medical examination that measures the level of C-peptide in the blood, providing insights into insulin production by the pancreas. C-peptide is released at the same time as insulin and can help assess the body's ability to produce insulin on its own. This test is valuable for diagnosing and monitoring diabetes, as low C-peptide levels may indicate decreased insulin production. By understanding C-peptide levels, doctors can tailor treatment plans, determine the appropriate use of insulin, and manage diabetes effectively for optimal health outcomes.Read more
