Check your iron levels and overall iron status from the comfort of your home with the Iron Status Profile Blood Test.
This test measures 5 key parameters to help detect iron deficiency or iron overload.
Parameters Tested:
Iron
Ferritin
Transferrin
Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC)
Transferrin Saturation
What the Test Reveals:
Serum Iron: Measures the amount of iron circulating in your blood and available for use.
Transferrin: Indicates how well your body transports iron. Low levels may suggest liver issues or malnutrition; high levels often point to iron deficiency anaemia.
Ferritin: Reflects your stored iron. Low ferritin = iron deficiency; high ferritin = possible overload or inflammation.
TIBC (Total Iron Binding Capacity): Shows your blood’s ability to bind and transport iron.
Transferrin Saturation (Tsat): Reveals how much of your transferrin is “full” of iron.
🩺 Why it Matters:
Iron deficiency anaemia occurs when your body lacks enough iron, often due to blood loss, pregnancy, or dietary factors.
Common Symptoms:
Fatigue or low energy
Shortness of breath
Heart palpitations
Pale skin
Frequent headaches
🧪 Your Results:
Reported within 3 working days of lab receipt
Includes quantitative results and remarks for any out-of-range values
Delivered securely via PDF email report
All samples processed by a CQC-regulated laboratory
📦 Your Kit Includes:
Everything you need for home sample collection:
lancets, instructions, lab request form, tube, labels, tube pouch, pre-paid UN3373 envelope, swabs, alcohol wipes, plasters, and tube holder.
No need to visit a post office—simply drop your sample in the nearest post box.
