This test measures the level of oestradiol, which is a form of estrogen, in the blood. It is used to diagnose and monitor conditions related to the reproductive system, such as infertility, menstrual irregularities, and menopause.

In males, it may be used to evaluate conditions such as gynecomastia and hypogonadism.

In females, it may also be used to assess ovarian function and the effectiveness of hormone replacement therapy. Additionally, abnormal levels of oestradiol may contribute to the diagnosis of certain types of cancer, such as breast and ovarian cancer.

The Magnesium (Serum) test is a blood test that measures the level of magnesium in your body. Magnesium is an essential mineral that plays a crucial role in many bodily functions. It helps maintain normal nerve and muscle function, keeps your heart rhythm steady, supports a healthy immune system, and helps build strong bones.

This test is usually ordered if you are experiencing symptoms like muscle weakness, fatigue, irregular heartbeat, or numbness and tingling in your hands and feet. It can also be used to monitor the effectiveness of magnesium supplements or to check for any imbalances in your body’s electrolytes.

The Luteinising Hormone (LH) test is a blood test that measures the level of a hormone called LH in your body. LH is produced by the pituitary gland in your brain and plays an important role in both men and women.

Overall, the LH test is used to assess the functioning of the reproductive system in both men and women. It can help identify hormonal imbalances, fertility issues, and certain medical conditions related to the reproductive system.

Liver Function Tests are a group of blood tests that are used to check how well your liver is working. The liver is an important organ that helps with digestion, filters toxins from the blood, and stores energy.

These tests can help to diagnose liver diseases, monitor the progression of liver conditions, and check for any potential side effects of certain medications.

The test measures various parameters such as creatinine, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). These parameters help in evaluating the filtration rate and waste removal, in the kidneys.

You may have this test for several reasons, including:

Monitoring kidney health: Individuals with pre-existing kidney conditions or those at risk of developing kidney disease may undergo this test regularly to monitor the functioning of their kidneys.

Diagnosing kidney disease: The test can help in diagnosing various kidney disorders such as chronic kidney disease, acute kidney injury, or kidney infections.

Evaluating medication effects: Certain medications can have adverse effects on kidney function. Regular kidney function tests can help monitor the impact of these medications on the kidneys.

Assessing overall health: Kidney function tests are often included as a part of routine health check-ups to assess overall kidney health and detect any potential issues early on.

Preparing for surgery: Before undergoing certain surgical procedures, especially those involving anaesthesia or medications that can affect kidney function, a kidney function test may be performed to ensure the kidneys are functioning properly.

This test is is suitable for overnight and next day delivery of the sample to the laboratory.

This test is used to detect the presence of antibodies against HIV types 1 and 2, as well as the p24 antigen, which is a protein produced by the HIV virus during the early stages of infection.

Someone would have this test done if they suspect they may have been exposed to HIV or if they are at a higher risk of contracting the virus. It is commonly used as a screening test for HIV infection, as it can detect the presence of antibodies and the p24 antigen within a few weeks to a few months after exposure. Early detection of HIV is crucial for timely medical intervention and to prevent the transmission of the virus to others.

The Hepatitis C Antibodies test is a blood test that checks for the presence of antibodies in your blood that are produced in response to the Hepatitis C virus. This test is used to determine if you have been infected with the Hepatitis C virus at some point in the past.

Hepatitis C is a liver infection caused by the Hepatitis C virus, and it can lead to serious liver damage if left untreated. The antibodies test is important because many people with Hepatitis C do not have any symptoms, so they may not know they are infected. By detecting the presence of antibodies, the test can help identify if someone has been exposed to the virus and may need further testing or treatment.

The Hepatitis B Surface Antigen test measures the presence of a specific protein on the surface of the Hepatitis B virus. This test is used to diagnose Hepatitis B infection.

The Hepatitis B Surface Antigen test measures the presence of a specific protein on the surface of the Hepatitis B virus. This test is used to diagnose Hepatitis B infection.

Provides information about different cells in the blood, including red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. Please note that FBC samples need to be tested within 24 hours and are not suitable for post.
