Metabolic

HOMA-IR

Extended panel — run periodically

What it indicates

A calculation combining fasting glucose and fasting insulin into a single index.

Why a series helps

It combines two values that each move on their own, so the index reads more steadily across a series than either input does alone.

What this page does not tell you

What a particular HOMA-IR result means depends on you: your history, your medication, why the test was taken. Ziro does not interpret results for individuals and does not diagnose. If something in your results warrants a conversation, that conversation is with a doctor, and your results are downloadable so you can bring them.
