The Anemia Profile assesses several key factors involved in iron metabolism, including transferrin, total serum iron (TSI), ferritin, total iron-binding capacity (TIBC), and unsaturated iron-binding capacity (UIBC). This profile is important for evaluating overall iron status and diagnosing conditions related to iron deficiency or overload, which can impact energy levels and overall health.

A Complete Blood Count (CBC) with 5-Part Differential provides detailed information about the types and quantities of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Often a starting point for physicians assessing overall health, this test helps detect conditions like infections and anemia, monitor treatments, and provides insights into your immune function, oxygen transport, and overall blood health.

Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate (DHEA-S) is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands that serves as a precursor to male and female sex hormones. Monitoring DHEA-S levels is important for evaluating adrenal function and understanding hormonal balance, especially in conditions related to aging, fertility, and certain adrenal disorders.

Electrolytes, including sodium (Na), potassium (K), and chloride (Cl), are minerals that help regulate fluid balance, nerve function, and muscle contraction. Monitoring these electrolytes is important for assessing overall metabolic health, maintaining proper hydration, and ensuring the normal functioning of vital systems in the body.

Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) measures the rate at which red blood cells settle at the bottom of a test tube over a period of time. This test is important for detecting inflammation in the body and is commonly used to monitor conditions such as infections, autoimmune diseases, and inflammatory disorders.

Estradiol (E2) is a form of estrogen, a hormone responsible for regulating reproductive and sexual function in women and also playing a role in bone health, hormonal imbalances and other bodily functions in both men and women. Monitoring estradiol levels is important for assessing hormonal balance, fertility, and conditions related to the reproductive system.

Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) is produced by the pituitary gland and plays a crucial role in the development of eggs in ovaries and sperm in testes. Monitoring FSH levels is important for evaluating fertility, reproductive health, and hormonal balance.

HbA1c measures the average blood sugar levels over the past 2 to 3 months by assessing how much glucose is attached to hemoglobin in red blood cells. This test is important for diagnosing and monitoring diabetes and providing insight into long-term blood sugar control.

The Kidney Function Test evaluates several key markers to assess how well the kidneys are working. It includes measurements of creatinine (Crea), urea, uric acid, and blood urea nitrogen (BUN), along with the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). This test helps diagnose kidney conditions, monitor kidney health, and manage chronic kidney disease.

The Lipid Profile provides a comprehensive assessment of various lipids in the blood, including Total Cholesterol, HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein), LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein), VLDL (Very-Low-Density Lipoprotein), Non-HDL Cholesterol, Triglycerides (Trig), Triglycerides/HDL Ratio, and LDL/HDL Ratio. This test is essential for assessing cardiovascular risk and managing cholesterol levels.

The Liver Function Test evaluates key indicators of liver health, including ALT (Alanine Transaminase), AST (Aspartate Aminotransferase), ALP (Alkaline Phosphatase), GGT (Gamma Glutamyl Transferase), Total Bilirubin, Total Protein, Albumin (Alb), Globulin, and the Albumin/Globulin (A/G) Ratio. This test helps diagnose liver diseases, monitor liver function, and manage conditions affecting the liver.

Luteinizing Hormone (LH) is a hormone that plays a crucial role in reproductive health by regulating the menstrual cycle and ovulation in women and testosterone production in men. Measuring LH levels helps evaluate reproductive health and diagnose related disorders.

Prolactin is essential for stimulating milk production and regulating reproductive health. This test measures prolactin levels to diagnose conditions related to abnormal milk production, menstrual irregularities, or issues with the pituitary gland.

Total prostate-specific antigen (PSA) measures the overall level of PSA in the blood, a protein produced by the prostate gland. This test helps evaluate prostate health and screen for conditions such as benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer.

Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) is a protein that binds to sex hormones such as testosterone and estrogen, regulating their activity in the body. This test measures SHBG levels to help assess hormone balance and identify potential issues related to sexual health, metabolism, and endocrine function.

Free testosterone is the fraction of testosterone not bound to proteins in the blood. This test measures the level of free testosterone to evaluate hormone balance, assess symptoms related to low or high testosterone levels, and support the diagnosis of conditions such as hypogonadism or hormonal imbalances.

Total testosterone measures the overall level of testosterone in the blood, including both bound and free forms. This test helps assess overall hormone levels, diagnose conditions related to testosterone imbalance, and evaluate issues such as low libido, fatigue, or symptoms of testosterone deficiency or excess.

The Thyroid Function Test evaluates key thyroid hormones: Free Triiodothyronine (FT3), Free Thyroxine (FT4), and Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH). This test helps assess overall thyroid health and function by measuring hormone levels that regulate metabolism, energy production, and overall growth. It is useful for diagnosing thyroid disorders such as hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism and monitoring thyroid treatment.

Vitamin D helps in the absorption of calcium during bone formation. In addition, vitamin D has anti-inflammatory and other properties that play a role in maintaining normal muscle, immune, and nervous system functions.
