5000+ Tests Processed With Express Pathology

My GP wanted to check my insulin due to rising blood sugar. The fasting test was easy to book and the nurse arrived right on time. Results were fast and helped me make changes early.

Callum B.

Great for anyone worried about diabetes. The home collection was smooth and professional. I had my report in just two days.

Nathan R.

Super helpful test for metabolic health. I already monitor my glucose but insulin told a much bigger story. Highly recommended.

Bianca L.

Very convenient service. I liked not having to visit a busy pathology centre. My insulin levels were borderline and now I’m working on diet and exercise before it gets worse.

Samantha K.

Excellent experience from booking to results. The report was detailed and easy to understand. This test gave me clarity about insulin resistance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Blood Insulin Levels Test measure?

This test measures fasting blood insulin, which helps assess:

  • Insulin resistance
  • Risk of type 2 diabetes
  • Metabolic health
  • How effectively your body responds to glucose

Who should take this test?

This test is recommended for people who:

  • Have pre-diabetes or diabetes
  • Have high fasting glucose
  • Are overweight or have PCOS
  • Have a family history of diabetes
  • Want a deeper view of metabolic health
  • Are monitoring insulin resistance

Why is fasting required for this test?

Fasting is essential because food directly affects insulin levels.
You should fast for 8–10 hours before your blood sample — only water is allowed.

What does high fasting insulin mean?

High insulin levels may indicate:

  • Insulin resistance
  • Increased risk of type 2 diabetes
  • Metabolic syndrome

Your GP may recommend lifestyle changes or further testing.

What does low fasting insulin mean?

Low insulin levels can occur with:

  • Certain pancreatic conditions
  • Strict low-carbohydrate diets
  • Long periods of fasting

Your doctor will interpret this based on your overall health and glucose levels.

Is this test the same as a blood glucose test?

No. A blood glucose test measures sugar levels, while this test measures insulin hormone levels.
Both together provide a much clearer picture of metabolic health.

Is the Blood Insulin Test safe?

Yes. The test is completely safe and performed using:

  • Sterile, single-use needles
  • Qualified healthcare professionals
  • Australian medical safety standards
