Hi,

Causes of hypoglycemia without diabetes. In people without diabetes, hypoglycemia can result from the body producing too much insulin after a meal, causing blood sugar levels to drop.

This is called reactive hypoglycemia. Reactive hypoglycemia can be an early sign of diabetes.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
