The C-peptide test serves as a means to measure the amount of C-peptide your body is making. C-peptide is a byproduct released by the pancreas during the synthesis of insulin. Remarkably, the pancreas generates insulin and C-peptide in nearly equal amounts. Insulin, a vital hormone, plays a pivotal role in regulating the levels of glucose (sugar) in the bloodstream, with glucose serving as the primary energy source for the human body. Given that C-peptide is a byproduct directly related to insulin production, this test provides valuable insights into the body's insulin production levels.
It is recommended when there is a need:
To evaluate the insulin production by the beta cells in the pancreas.
To help determine the cause of low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia), whether it is due to insulin-producing tumours in the body or due to insulin injections (medicinal insulin)
It monitors how well the insulinomas (tumours) are responding to the treatment.
To distinguish between Type I and Type II diabetes mellitus.
