# Insulin and C-Peptide

> This test measures the levels of insulin and C-peptide in your blood to evaluate how well your pancreas is producing its own insulin. Because C-peptide is released at the same time your body makes insulin, this test helps show whether your body is creating insulin naturally, even if you take insulin medication.
