Why and when is a C-peptide test/Insulin C-peptide test done?
The pancreas produces insulin which helps regulate blood sugar levels in the body. With every single molecule of insulin, there is a release of an equal amount of C- peptide. Thus, the estimation of C peptide provides information about the amount of insulin produced by the body.
Testing for C-peptide can be a highly beneficial tool for the following reasons:
- To differentiate whether you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes.
- To determine the reason of low blood sugar that is hypoglycemia
- To diagnose the presence of a tumor in the pancreas that releases insulin.
- To find out the appropriate time for starting the insulin treatment in a patient with type 2 diabetes.
The test is performed on patients who experience hypoglycemia, that is low blood sugar levels. The symptoms of hypoglycaemia are the following:
- Sweating
- Increased heart rate
- Excess hunger

- Confusion
