Original Abstract Submitted

A wearable electronic device is provided. The wearable electronic device includes a first sensor, a second sensor, a memory, and a processor, wherein the processor may be configured to measure a blood sugar level in a first cycle using the first sensor so as to store a first blood sugar level measured at a first time point, detect a specified event, based on measured values received from the second sensor from a second time point after the first time point to a third time point, if the specified event is detected, measure a blood sugar level of the user in a second cycle different from the first cycle so as to store at least one second blood sugar level measured from a fourth time point to a fifth time point according to the second cycle, and calculate at least one feature value related to blood sugar of the user.
