Women’s Health Panel

This panel consists of key health markers tailored specifically for women’s wellness. This comprehensive panel covers complete blood count, lipid profile, liver and kidney function, glucose levels, iron levels, heart health, thyroid function, and markers of inflammation. The panel helps identify risk factors for conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, thyroid disorders, and hormonal imbalances, empowering women to take proactive steps towards risk reduction and optimal health.c

What is tested:

Complete Blood Count (CBC) – measures various components of the blood, including red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), hemoglobin, hematocrit, and platelets. Provides a comprehensive overview of blood health and helps diagnose a wide range of conditions.
Measures levels of RBCs and hemoglobin to identify anemia, which can cause fatigue and weakness. Assesses WBC count to detect infections, inflammatory conditions, or immune system disorders. Evaluates platelet count to assess the blood’s ability to clot and diagnose bleeding disorders. This helps identify underlying health issues, monitor overall health, and evaluate the effectiveness of treatments.

Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP) – is a broad blood test that measures various substances in the blood, including glucose, calcium, electrolytes, proteins, and enzymes, to evaluate overall metabolic and organ function.
Provides insights into the function of key organs such as the liver and kidneys by measuring enzymes, electrolytes, and proteins. Assesses glucose levels, electrolytes, and kidney function to monitor metabolic health and detect conditions like diabetes, kidney disease, and liver disorders.

Cholesterol (Lipid) Panel – Cholesterol is a fatty substance necessary for building cell membranes and producing hormones. The test measures different types of cholesterol in the blood, including total cholesterol, LDL (bad) cholesterol, HDL (good) cholesterol, and triglycerides.
High levels of LDL cholesterol and low levels of HDL cholesterol are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack and stroke. Regular cholesterol testing helps assess and manage cardiovascular risk by tracking cholesterol levels and guiding lifestyle or medication interventions.

Iron and Total Iron Binding Capacity – The Iron and TIBC panel measures various indicators related to iron levels and capacity in the blood, including serum iron, TIBC, transferrin, and sometimes ferritin. Helps evaluate iron metabolism and diagnose conditions related to iron deficiency or overload.
Low serum iron levels and high TIBC can indicate iron deficiency anemia, where the body lacks sufficient iron to produce healthy red blood cells. Elevated serum iron levels with low TIBC may suggest conditions such as hemochromatosis, where there is excessive iron accumulation in the body. Transferrin is a protein that binds and transports iron; abnormal levels can help diagnose and monitor iron-related disorders. Useful for monitoring iron levels during treatment for anemia or iron overload and assessing overall iron status.

Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) –  measures the average blood glucose levels over the past two to three months by assessing the percentage of hemoglobin that is glycated (bound to glucose).
Provides a long-term view of blood sugar control, helping to assess how well diabetes is being managed and adjust treatment plans. Used to diagnose diabetes and prediabetes by identifying elevated average blood glucose levels over time.

Thyroid Function Test (TSH) – a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that stimulates the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormones (T3 and T4), which regulate metabolism.
Abnormal TSH levels indicate thyroid dysfunction. High TSH levels suggest hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid), while low TSH levels indicate hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid). Helps diagnose conditions related to symptoms such as fatigue, weight changes, and temperature sensitivity, which are often linked to thyroid issues.

High-Sensitivity CRP Test (Inflammation Marker) – measures levels of CRP, a protein produced by the liver in response to inflammation. Used to detect and monitor low levels of chronic inflammation and assess risk for cardiovascular diseases.
Elevated hs-CRP levels are associated with an increased risk of heart disease, including heart attack and stroke. It helps in assessing inflammation that may contribute to atherosclerosis (artery plaque buildup). Useful in monitoring the effectiveness of treatments for inflammatory conditions and assessing overall inflammation levels.

A Vitamin D test measures blood vitamin D levels to identify deficiency or excess, supporting bone health, calcium absorption, and immune function.

Urinalysis is a common test that examines urine’s appearance, concentration, and content to detect kidney disease, urinary tract infections, diabetes, and other health issues.

Physician Review

What to expect after the test

After you provide your specimen, it generally takes few business days to process and release your test results. Your test results will be available in a clear and easy-to-read report. Independent physicians are available to discuss questions or concerns you may have regarding your results.
