Particular attention is given to possible iron deficiency, which affects a large number of women, mainly due to blood loss during menstruation. Women are also screened for thyroid disorders, which occur frequently in the female population.
In addition, we check for infections that may significantly affect female fertility, and we may optionally measure tumor markers related to the reproductive organs.
Therefore, the additional tests we recommend for preventive screening are the following:
Iron (Fe) and Ferritin (Ferr)
These tests are used together to investigate possible iron deficiency. Common indications of iron deficiency include brittle hair and nails, fatigue, fainting tendencies, and irregular menstrual cycles.
Calcium (Ca)
Calcium is one of the most important trace elements in metabolism and is associated with the proper function of several body systems, including the thyroid gland, kidneys, bones, and others.
T3, fT4, TSH, anti-TPO, anti-TG
This thyroid test panel evaluates both the biochemical function and regulation of the thyroid gland, as well as the presence of autoantibodies that may impair its function.
CA-125
A marker associated with ovarian inflammation or neoplasia. This test may help detect conditions such as endometriosis, which can lead to infertility.
Prolactin (PRL)
Recommended in cases of menstrual irregularities or unexpected hair growth.
CA 15-3
A tumor marker related to breast neoplasia, particularly in individuals with a family history of breast cancer.
Vaginal cultures
Testing for Ureaplasma, Mycoplasma, Chlamydia, Trichomonas, and fungal infections.
HBsAg and anti-HIV
Tests for infections caused by Hepatitis B and HIV/AIDS.
Your results are provided with complete explanation, medical evaluation, and initial guidance if needed.
Preparation for the morning blood test
The following preparation is recommended:
A meal should be taken the previous evening.
The last meal should be consumed 11–12 hours before the blood draw.
The evening meal should contain as little animal fat as possible.
On the morning of the test, no food should be consumed, except for coffee if desired, while water intake is allowed.
Urine sample collection
Collect the first urine of the morning.
Perform local cleansing with plenty of water (without soap).
Discard the first portion of urine, and collect a midstream sample in a sterile urine container.
