This panel provides a comprehensive overview of women’s health, helping your doctor diagnose conditions, monitor treatment, and assess overall well-being. Recommended
annually.
Hormones
- LH & FSH: Luteinizing Hormone (LH) and Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) are crucial for reproductive health and signal to your organs to release sex hormones
- Testosterone Free and Total LC/MS: Measures both free and total testosterone levels, essential for muscle mass, bone density, and overall health.
- Estradiol: Measures sensitive levels of estradiol, a form of estrogen
- Prolactin: A hormone that can affect reproductive health and sexual function.
- Cortisol: Known as the stress hormone, it helps regulate metabolism, blood sugar levels, and inflammation.
- DHEA Sulfate: A precursor to sex hormones, important for overall hormonal balance.
- Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG): A protein that binds to sex hormones, affecting their availability in the body.
- Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH): This hormone is produced by ovarian follicles and is a marker of ovarian reserve, which indicates the number of eggs a woman has. Higher levels suggest a greater number of remaining eggs, while lower levels can indicate a diminished ovarian reserve.
Metabolism
- Uric Acid: High levels can indicate gout or kidney stones.
- GGT (Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase): An enzyme that indicates liver health and function.
- Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (14 markers): Includes tests for kidney and liver function, blood sugar levels, and electrolyte balance.
- PTT Activated (Partial Thromboplastin Time): Measures blood clotting time, important for diagnosing bleeding disorders.
- Leptin: A hormone that regulates hunger and energy balance.
- MMA: A marker used to assess vitamin B12 deficiency and evaluate metabolic function.
- Lipase: An enzyme that helps digest fats; elevated levels can indicate pancreatitis or other pancreatic disorders.
- Amylase: An enzyme that helps digest carbohydrates; high levels may signal pancreatitis or salivary gland issues.
- RH Factor: A protein found on red blood cells; important for determining blood compatibility in pregnancy and transfusions.
- ABO Group: Determines an individual’s blood type (A, B, AB, or O).
Thyroid
- TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone): Regulates thyroid function.
- T4 Free and T3 Free: Measure levels of thyroid hormones, important for metabolism and energy regulation.
Diabetes Risk
- HbA1c: Indicates average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months, used to diagnose and monitor diabetes.
- Insulin: Measures insulin levels, important for diagnosing insulin resistance and diabetes.
Nutrition and Anemia
- Vitamin D: Essential for bone health and immune function.
- Zinc: A mineral vital for immune function, wound healing, and DNA synthesis.
- Magnesium Serum: Crucial for muscle and nerve function, blood sugar control, and bone health.
- Complete Blood Cell (CBC) Report: Provides information on red and white blood cells and platelets, indicating overall health and detecting conditions like anemia.
- Iron Serum, Ferritin, TIBC/UIBC: Measure iron levels and storage, important for diagnosing anemia and other conditions.
- Urinalysis: A test that evaluates urine components to detect infections, kidney issues, and metabolic conditions.
Cardiac Health
- Lipid Panel: Measures cholesterol levels, including LDL (bad cholesterol), HDL (good cholesterol), and triglycerides, important for assessing heart disease risk.
- NMR lipoprofile: Detailed breakdown of cholesterol into various particle sizes and counts.
- C-Reactive Protein (CRP): Indicates inflammation in the body, which can be a marker for heart disease.
- Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)]: A genetically influenced lipoprotein associated with cardiovascular risk.
- Homocysteine: High levels can indicate a risk for heart disease and stroke.
- Apolipoprotein B (ApoB): A protein involved in lipid transport; helps evaluate cardiovascular disease risk.
