Lab Unit Converter
Lab reports in Pakistan usually use mg/dL, while reports from the UK, Gulf and many guidelines use mmol/L or µmol/L. Choose a test, enter your result and see it in the other unit.
For information only. A calculator cannot diagnose you; discuss your results with your doctor.
Good to know
Conversions use standard factors based on each substance's molecular weight, so tiny rounding differences from your lab are normal. Converting a result does not change what it means; compare it with the reference range in the same unit.
Formula
Each test: SI unit = conventional unit × factor (divide to convert back):
Glucose (blood sugar): mg/dL ÷ 18.016 = mmol/L
Cholesterol (total, LDL, HDL): mg/dL ÷ 38.67 = mmol/L
Triglycerides: mg/dL ÷ 88.57 = mmol/L
Creatinine: mg/dL × 88.4 = µmol/L
Urea: mg/dL ÷ 6.006 = mmol/L
Uric acid: mg/dL × 59.48 = µmol/L
Calcium: mg/dL ÷ 4.008 = mmol/L
Bilirubin: mg/dL × 17.1 = µmol/L
Vitamin D (25-OH): ng/mL × 2.496 = nmol/L
Haemoglobin: g/dL × 10 = g/L
HbA1c: mmol/mol = (% − 2.15) × 10.929
Common questions
How do I convert blood sugar from mg/dL to mmol/L?
Divide by 18. For example, 126 mg/dL is 7.0 mmol/L.
How do I convert vitamin D from ng/mL to nmol/L?
Multiply by 2.5. For example, 20 ng/mL is 50 nmol/L.
How do I convert HbA1c from % to mmol/mol?
Use (HbA1c % − 2.15) × 10.929. For example, 6.5% is 48 mmol/mol.
