C-Peptide (Fasting)
A C-peptide test is often used to help tell the difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes. With type 1 diabetes, your pancreas makes little to no insulin, and little or no C-peptide. With type 2 diabetes, the body makes insulin, but doesn’t use it well. This can cause C-peptide levels to be higher than normal.
The test may also be used to:
Find the cause of low blood sugar, also known as hypoglycemia.
Check if diabetes treatments are working.
Check on the status of a pancreatic tumor.
Why do I need a C-peptide test?
You may need a C-peptide test if your health care provider thinks you have diabetes, but is unsure whether it is type 1 or type 2. You may also need a C-peptide test if you have symptoms of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Symptoms include:Sweating
Rapid or irregular heartbeat
Abnormal hunger
Blurred vision
Confusion
Fainting
What happens during a C-peptide test?
A C-peptide test is usually given as a blood test. During a blood test, a health care professional will take a blood sample from a vein in your arm, using a small needle. After the needle is inserted, a small amount of blood will be collected into a test tube or vial. You may feel a little sting when the needle goes in or out. This usually takes less than five minutes.C-peptide can also be measured in urine. Your health care provider may ask you to collect all urine passed in a 24-hour period. This is called a 24-hour urine sample test. For this test, your health care provider or a laboratory professional will give a container in which to collect your urine and instructions on how to collect and store your samples. A 24-hour urine sample test generally includes the following steps:
Empty your bladder in the morning and flush that urine away. Record the time.
For the next 24 hours, save all your urine passed in the container provided.
Store your urine container in the refrigerator or a cooler with ice.
Return the sample container to your health provider’s office or the laboratory as instructed.
Will I need to do anything to prepare for the test?
You may need to fast (not eat or drink) for 8?12 hours before a C-peptide blood test. If your health care provider has ordered a C-peptide urine test, be sure to ask if there are any specific instructions you need to follow.₹658.00Add to cart -

Albumin
An albumin blood test measures the amount of albumin in your blood. Low albumin levels can be a sign of liver or kidney disease or another medical condition. High levels may be a sign of dehydration.
Albumin is a protein made by your liver. Albumin enters your bloodstream and helps keep fluid from leaking out of your blood vessels into other tissues. It is also carries hormones, vitamins, and enzymes throughout your body. Without enough albumin, fluid can leak out of your blood and build up in your lungs, abdomen (belly), or other parts of your body.
Other names: ALB, serum albumin test
What is it used for?
An albumin blood test is used to check your general health and to see how well your liver and kidneys are working. If your liver is damaged or you’re not well nourished, your liver may not make enough albumin. If your kidneys are damaged, they may let too much albumin leave your body in urine (pee).An albumin blood test is often done as part of a group of blood tests that measure different enzymes, proteins, and other substances made in your liver. These tests are called liver function tests or liver panel. An albumin test may also be part of a comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP), a group of routine blood tests that measures several substances.

Free T4
A thyroxine test is a blood test that helps diagnose thyroid conditions. The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland at the base of your throat. Your thyroid makes hormones that control the way your body uses energy. These hormones affect your weight, heart, body temperature, muscle strength, and even your mood. In children, thyroid hormones affect growth, too.
Thyroxine, also known as T4, is a type of thyroid hormone. A T4 test measures the level of T4 in your blood. Too much or too little T4 can be a sign of thyroid disease.
There are two forms of T4 in your blood:
Free T4 is the active form of thyroxine hormone that enters your tissues where it’s needed.
Bound T4 is thyroxine that attaches or binds to certain proteins which prevent it from entering your tissues.
T4 levels can be measured with either a free T4 test or a total T4 test:A free T4 test directly measures the amount of free T4 in your blood. Medical experts believe this test provides more accurate information than a total T4 test, so it’s used more often.
A total T4 test measures free and bound T4 together. A calculation may be done to figure out how much T4 is free. This is a less accurate way to check how well your thyroid is working.
Other names: free thyroxine, free T4, total T4 concentration, T4 index, thyroxine screen, free T4 concentration, thyroxine test by equilibrium dialysis Will I need to do anything to prepare for the test?
In most cases, you don’t need any special preparations for a thyroxine blood test. Certain medicines and supplements may affect your test results, so let your provider know what you’re taking, but don’t stop any medicines without talking with your provider.If your provider has ordered more tests on your blood sample, you may need to fast (not eat or drink) for several hours before the test. Your health care provider will let you know if there are any special instructions to follow.

Urinary spot calcium
A calcium in urine test measures the amount of calcium in your urine (pee). If your urine calcium levels are too high or too low, it may be a sign of kidney disease, kidney stones, bone disease, a parathyroid gland disorder, or other conditions.
Calcium is one of the most important minerals in your body. Most of your calcium is stored in your bones and teeth. About 1% of the calcium in your body is in your blood. Having the right amount of calcium in your blood is necessary for your nerves, muscles, and heart to work properly. Normally, your kidneys filter out a small amount of calcium from your blood, which leaves your body in urine.
Checking the amount of calcium in urine can help diagnose kidney problems and other conditions that can affect calcium levels in your blood. If you have symptoms of any of these conditions, your health care provider may order a calcium blood test, too.
Other names: urinalysis (calcium), urinary Ca+2
What is it used for?
A calcium in urine test may be used to diagnose or monitor how well your kidney are working. It may be used if you have symptoms of kidney stones, which are more likely to form if you have too much calcium in your urine. A calcium in urine test may also help diagnose problems with the parathyroid glands in your neck. These glands help control the amount of calcium in your body. You may be asked to avoid certain foods and medicines for several days before the test. Do not stop taking any medicines without talking with your provider. Your provider will let you know if there are any special instructions to follow. You may be asked to avoid certain foods and medicines for several days before the test.

Free Beta HCG
Free Beta HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) is produced by the placenta during pregnancy. This test is used to confirm pregnancy, detecting ectopic pregnancy, potential miscarriage and screening of downs syndrome. High levels of beta HCG may also indicate a specific type of ovarian cancer in women and testicular cancer in men. Beta HCG is normally present in low amounts in men and women, the level of beta HCG increase during the initial period of pregnancy and falls to negligible levels after delivery. This test is also used to evaluate treatment with certain anticancer drugs and the patient?s response to the treatment and its effectiveness.

Triglycerides
A triglycerides test is a blood test that measures the amount of a fat in your blood called triglycerides. High triglycerides may increase your risk for a heart attack or stroke. A triglycerides test can help you decide if you need to take action to lower your risk.
Your body uses triglycerides for energy. If you eat more calories than you need, your body turns the extra calories into triglycerides and stores them in your fat cells to use later. When your body needs energy, your cells release triglycerides into your bloodstream to provide fuel for your muscles to work.
If you eat more calories than you burn off, especially calories from carbohydrates, including sugary foods, and fats, you may have high triglyceride levels in your blood. A high blood triglyceride level usually doesn’t cause any symptoms, but over time, it may affect your arteries and increase your risk of heart disease. Extremely high levels of triglycerides also increase the risk of acute pancreatitis in adults and children. our health care provider may order a lipid profile, including a triglycerides test, as part of a regular checkup. If you are being treated for high cholesterol and/or triglycerides, you may also need this test to see how well your treatment is working.
How often you need to have a lipid profile test depends on your age, sex, and your risk of developing heart disease. The general age recommendations for testing blood lipid levels are:
For ages 2 to 19:
In general, start testing between ages nine and 11. Repeat the test every five years.
If there is a family history of high blood cholesterol, heart attack, stroke, or other risks for developing heart disease, test as early as age two.
For ages 20 and older, tests should be done:Every five years for:
Males between ages 20 and 45
Females between ages 20 and 55
Every 1 to 2 years for:
Males age 45 and older
Females age 55 and older
Every year for adults over age 65
You may need to be tested more often if you have a higher risk for heart disease because you:Have a family health history of early heart disease (a parent or sibling with heart disease before age 55 for males, and before age 65 for females)
Smoke
Are overweight or have obesity
Have unhealthy eating habits
Don’t get enough exercise
Have diabetes
Have high blood pressure
Are a male age 45 or older, or a female age 50 or older
Ask your doctor how often you need to have your blood lipid levels tested.What happens during a triglycerides test?
During the test, a health care professional will take a blood sample from a vein in your arm, using a small needle. After the needle is inserted, a small amount of blood will be collected into a test tube or vial. You may feel a little sting when the needle goes in or out. This usually takes less than five minutes.Will I need to do anything to prepare for the test?

Chloride
A chloride blood test measures the amount of chloride in your blood. Chloride is a type of electrolyte. Electrolytes are electrically charged minerals that help control the amount of fluids and the balance of acids and bases (pH balance) in your body. Chloride is often measured with other electrolytes to diagnose or monitor conditions, such as kidney disease, heart failure, liver disease, and high blood pressure. you usually get a chloride test as part of a routine blood screening to check your general health. It’s also used to help diagnose conditions related to an imbalance of acids or fluids in your body.You don’t need any special preparations for a chloride blood test or an electrolyte panel. If your provider has ordered other blood tests, you may need to fast (not eat or drink) for several hours before the test.

Bilirubin (T+D)
A bilirubin test measures the levels of bilirubin in your blood. Bilirubin (bil-ih-ROO-bin) is a yellowish pigment that is made during the normal breakdown of red blood cells. Bilirubin passes through the liver and is eventually excreted out of the body.
Higher than normal levels of bilirubin may indicate different types of liver or bile duct problems. Occasionally, higher bilirubin levels may be caused by an increased rate of destruction of red blood cells (hemolysis). Bilirubin testing is usually done as part of a group of tests to check the health of your liver. Bilirubin testing may be done to:
Investigate jaundice ? a yellowing of the skin and eyes caused by elevated levels of bilirubin. A common use of this test is to measure bilirubin levels in newborns to check for infant jaundice.
Determine whether there might be blockage in your bile ducts, in either the liver or the gallbladder.
Help detect liver disease, particularly hepatitis, or monitor its progression.
Help evaluate anemia caused by the destruction of red blood cells.
Help follow how a treatment is working.
Help evaluate a suspected drug toxicity.₹199.00Add to cart -

CA 125
A CA 125 test measures the amount of the protein CA 125 (cancer antigen 125) in the blood.
This test may be used to monitor certain cancers during and after treatment. In some situations, the test may be used to look for early signs of ovarian cancer in people with a very high risk of the disease.
A CA 125 test isn’t accurate enough to use for ovarian cancer screening in general because many conditions can increase the level of this protein.
Conditions that can cause an increase in CA 125 include many that aren’t cancerous, such as menstruation and uterine fibroids. Certain cancers may also cause an increased level of CA 125, including ovarian, endometrial, peritoneal and fallopian tube cancers

C-Peptide (PP)
What is a C-peptide test?
This test measures the level of C-peptide in your blood or urine. C-peptide is a substance made in the pancreas, along with insulin. Insulin is a hormone that controls the body’s glucose (blood sugar) levels. Glucose is your body’s main source of energy. If your body doesn’t make the right amount of insulin, it may be a sign of diabetes.C-peptide and insulin are released from the pancreas at the same time and in about equal amounts. So a C-peptide test can show how much insulin your body is making. This test can be a good way to measure insulin levels because C-peptide tends to stay in the body longer than insulin.

Cholesterol
A complete cholesterol test ? also called a lipid panel or lipid profile ? is a blood test that can measure the amount of cholesterol and triglycerides in your blood.
A cholesterol test can help determine your risk of the buildup of fatty deposits (plaques) in your arteries that can lead to narrowed or blocked arteries throughout your body (atherosclerosis).
A cholesterol test is an important tool. High cholesterol levels often are a significant risk factor for coronary artery disease. High cholesterol usually causes no signs or symptoms. A complete cholesterol test is done to determine whether your cholesterol is high and to estimate your risk of heart attacks and other forms of heart disease and diseases of the blood vessels. You’re generally required to fast, consuming no food or liquids other than water, for nine to 12 hours before the test. Some cholesterol tests don’t require fasting, so follow your doctor’s instructions.

HAV IgG
To determine if viral hepatitis is caused by the hepatitis A virus, hepatitis A testing looks for certain antibodies. Antibodies are substances made by the immune system in response to infection with a virus such as hepatitis A.
Hepatitis A testing looks for two types of antibodies. Antibodies are part of the body?s protective response to a viral infection, and hepatitis A virus antibodies may be measured by a few different tests:
Hepatitis A immunoglobulin M (IgM anti-HAV) antibody test: When a person is first infected with hepatitis A, the body produces IgM anti-HAV antibodies. These antibodies are usually detectable from two weeks after symptoms begin to around six months later.
Hepatitis A immunoglobulin G (IgG anti-HAV) antibody test: The IgG anti-HAV antibody test detects IgG antibodies that develop later in the course of the disease. IgG antibodies are detectable in the body for life, providing protection against a future hepatitis A virus infection. The IgG anti-HAV test is used to detect past HAV infections and may occasionally be used to determine if an individual has developed immunity from a previous infection or vaccination.
Total hepatitis A antibody test: The total HAV antibody test detects both IgM and IgG antibodies and thus is used to identify both current and past infections.
Although testing the blood for HAV antibodies is the gold standard for identifying a hepatitis A infection, other tests may be ordered that instead look for the genetic material of the hepatitis A virus. This type of testing, also called nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT), can detect traces of hepatitis A in a patient?s stool, blood, body fluids, and liver tissue.In many cases, specific hepatitis A testing occurs along with or after blood tests that measure liver function. These tests may include a broad panel of tests, called a liver panel. The measurements in a liver panel can provide information about liver function and inflammation. While these tests can suggest viral hepatitis, they cannot identify the specific virus, which is why antibody testing may be prescribed to confirm the underlying cause.

Free T3
This test is done to check your thyroid function. Thyroid function depends on the action of T3 and other hormones, including thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and T4.
Sometimes it can be useful to measure both T3 and T4 when evaluating thyroid function.
The total T3 test measures the T3 that is both attached to proteins and floating free in the blood.
The free T3 test measures the T3 that is floating free in the blood. The tests for free T3 are generally less accurate than for total T3.
Your provider may recommend this test if you have signs of a thyroid disorder, including:
The pituitary gland does not produce normal amounts of some or all of its hormone (hypopituitarism)
Overactive thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism)
Underactive thyroid gland (hypothyroidism)

Trouble thinking clearly. An albumin blood test measures the amount of albumin in your blood. Low albumin levels can be a sign of liver or kidney disease or another medical condition. High levels may be a sign of dehydration.Albumin is a protein made by your liver. Albumin enters your bloodstream and helps keep fluid from leaking out of your blood vessels into other tissues. It is also carries hormones, vitamins, and enzymes throughout your body. Without enough albumin, fluid can leak out of your blood and build up in your lungs, abdomen (belly), or other parts of your body.
Other names: ALB, serum albumin test
What is it used for?
An albumin blood test is used to check your general health and to see how well your liver and kidneys are working. If your liver is damaged or you’re not well nourished, your liver may not make enough albumin. If your kidneys are damaged, they may let too much albumin leave your body in urine (pee).An albumin blood test is often done as part of a group of blood tests that measure different enzymes, proteins, and other substances made in your liver. These tests are called liver function tests or liver panel. An albumin test may also be part of a comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP), a group of routine blood tests that measures several substances.
Why do I need an albumin blood test?
Your health care provider may order an albumin test as part your regular checkup. The test may be ordered as part of a group of liver function tests or a comprehensive metabolic panel. You may also need this test if you have symptoms of liver or kidney disease.Symptoms of liver disease include:
Nausea and vomiting
Lack of appetite
Fatigue
Weakness
Jaundice, a condition that causes your skin and eyes to turn yellow
Swelling and/or pain in your abdomen (belly)
Swelling in your ankles and legs
Dark-colored urine (pee) and/or light-colored stool (poop)
Frequent itching
Symptoms of kidney disease include:Swelling in the hands and feet or puffy eyelids
Dry skin, itching, or numbness
Fatigue
Increased or decreased urination
Urine that is bloody or foamy
Loss of appetite and weight loss
Muscle cramps
Nausea and vomiting
Shortness of breath
Sleep problems
Trouble thinking clearlyYou don’t need any special preparations to test for albumin in blood. If your provider ordered other blood tests, you may need to fast (not eat or drink) for several hours before the test. Your provider will let you know if there are any special instructions to follow. Certain medicines may affect your test results, so tell your provider what you are taking. But don’t stop taking any medicines without talking with your provider first.₹131.00Add to cart -
Free T4
A thyroxine test is a blood test that helps diagnose thyroid conditions. The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland at the base of your throat. Your thyroid makes hormones that control the way your body uses energy. These hormones affect your weight, heart, body temperature, muscle strength, and even your mood. In children, thyroid hormones affect growth, too.
Thyroxine, also known as T4, is a type of thyroid hormone. A T4 test measures the level of T4 in your blood. Too much or too little T4 can be a sign of thyroid disease.
There are two forms of T4 in your blood:
Free T4 is the active form of thyroxine hormone that enters your tissues where it’s needed.
Bound T4 is thyroxine that attaches or binds to certain proteins which prevent it from entering your tissues.
T4 levels can be measured with either a free T4 test or a total T4 test:A free T4 test directly measures the amount of free T4 in your blood. Medical experts believe this test provides more accurate information than a total T4 test, so it’s used more often.
A total T4 test measures free and bound T4 together. A calculation may be done to figure out how much T4 is free. This is a less accurate way to check how well your thyroid is working.
Other names: free thyroxine, free T4, total T4 concentration, T4 index, thyroxine screen, free T4 concentration, thyroxine test by equilibrium dialysis Will I need to do anything to prepare for the test?
In most cases, you don’t need any special preparations for a thyroxine blood test. Certain medicines and supplements may affect your test results, so let your provider know what you’re taking, but don’t stop any medicines without talking with your provider.If your provider has ordered more tests on your blood sample, you may need to fast (not eat or drink) for several hours before the test. Your health care provider will let you know if there are any special instructions to follow.

Urinary spot calcium
A calcium in urine test measures the amount of calcium in your urine (pee). If your urine calcium levels are too high or too low, it may be a sign of kidney disease, kidney stones, bone disease, a parathyroid gland disorder, or other conditions.
Calcium is one of the most important minerals in your body. Most of your calcium is stored in your bones and teeth. About 1% of the calcium in your body is in your blood. Having the right amount of calcium in your blood is necessary for your nerves, muscles, and heart to work properly. Normally, your kidneys filter out a small amount of calcium from your blood, which leaves your body in urine.
Checking the amount of calcium in urine can help diagnose kidney problems and other conditions that can affect calcium levels in your blood. If you have symptoms of any of these conditions, your health care provider may order a calcium blood test, too.
Other names: urinalysis (calcium), urinary Ca+2
What is it used for?
A calcium in urine test may be used to diagnose or monitor how well your kidney are working. It may be used if you have symptoms of kidney stones, which are more likely to form if you have too much calcium in your urine. A calcium in urine test may also help diagnose problems with the parathyroid glands in your neck. These glands help control the amount of calcium in your body. You may be asked to avoid certain foods and medicines for several days before the test. Do not stop taking any medicines without talking with your provider. Your provider will let you know if there are any special instructions to follow. You may be asked to avoid certain foods and medicines for several days before the test.

Free Beta HCG
Free Beta HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) is produced by the placenta during pregnancy. This test is used to confirm pregnancy, detecting ectopic pregnancy, potential miscarriage and screening of downs syndrome. High levels of beta HCG may also indicate a specific type of ovarian cancer in women and testicular cancer in men. Beta HCG is normally present in low amounts in men and women, the level of beta HCG increase during the initial period of pregnancy and falls to negligible levels after delivery. This test is also used to evaluate treatment with certain anticancer drugs and the patient?s response to the treatment and its effectiveness.

Triglycerides
A triglycerides test is a blood test that measures the amount of a fat in your blood called triglycerides. High triglycerides may increase your risk for a heart attack or stroke. A triglycerides test can help you decide if you need to take action to lower your risk.
Your body uses triglycerides for energy. If you eat more calories than you need, your body turns the extra calories into triglycerides and stores them in your fat cells to use later. When your body needs energy, your cells release triglycerides into your bloodstream to provide fuel for your muscles to work.
If you eat more calories than you burn off, especially calories from carbohydrates, including sugary foods, and fats, you may have high triglyceride levels in your blood. A high blood triglyceride level usually doesn’t cause any symptoms, but over time, it may affect your arteries and increase your risk of heart disease. Extremely high levels of triglycerides also increase the risk of acute pancreatitis in adults and children. our health care provider may order a lipid profile, including a triglycerides test, as part of a regular checkup. If you are being treated for high cholesterol and/or triglycerides, you may also need this test to see how well your treatment is working.
How often you need to have a lipid profile test depends on your age, sex, and your risk of developing heart disease. The general age recommendations for testing blood lipid levels are:
For ages 2 to 19:
In general, start testing between ages nine and 11. Repeat the test every five years.
If there is a family history of high blood cholesterol, heart attack, stroke, or other risks for developing heart disease, test as early as age two.
For ages 20 and older, tests should be done:Every five years for:
Males between ages 20 and 45
Females between ages 20 and 55
Every 1 to 2 years for:
Males age 45 and older
Females age 55 and older
Every year for adults over age 65
You may need to be tested more often if you have a higher risk for heart disease because you:Have a family health history of early heart disease (a parent or sibling with heart disease before age 55 for males, and before age 65 for females)
Smoke
Are overweight or have obesity
Have unhealthy eating habits
Don’t get enough exercise
Have diabetes
Have high blood pressure
Are a male age 45 or older, or a female age 50 or older
Ask your doctor how often you need to have your blood lipid levels tested.What happens during a triglycerides test?
During the test, a health care professional will take a blood sample from a vein in your arm, using a small needle. After the needle is inserted, a small amount of blood will be collected into a test tube or vial. You may feel a little sting when the needle goes in or out. This usually takes less than five minutes.Will I need to do anything to prepare for the test?
You may need to fast (not eat or drink) for 9 to 12 hours before your blood is drawn. Your provider will let you know if you need to fast and if there are any special instructions to follow.₹112.00Add to cart -
Free T3, Free T4 & TSH
A T3 test is most often used to diagnose hyperthyroidism, a condition in which the body makes too much thyroid hormone.
T3 tests are frequently ordered with T4 and TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) tests. A T3 test may also be used to monitor treatment for thyroid disease. You don’t need any special preparations for a T3 blood test. Your health care provider will let you know if you need to stop taking any medicines before your test. Certain medicines can raise or lower T3 levels.

Chloride
A chloride blood test measures the amount of chloride in your blood. Chloride is a type of electrolyte. Electrolytes are electrically charged minerals that help control the amount of fluids and the balance of acids and bases (pH balance) in your body. Chloride is often measured with other electrolytes to diagnose or monitor conditions, such as kidney disease, heart failure, liver disease, and high blood pressure. you usually get a chloride test as part of a routine blood screening to check your general health. It’s also used to help diagnose conditions related to an imbalance of acids or fluids in your body.You don’t need any special preparations for a chloride blood test or an electrolyte panel. If your provider has ordered other blood tests, you may need to fast (not eat or drink) for several hours before the test. Your provider will let you know if there are any special instructions to follow.

Bilirubin (T+D)
A bilirubin test measures the levels of bilirubin in your blood. Bilirubin (bil-ih-ROO-bin) is a yellowish pigment that is made during the normal breakdown of red blood cells. Bilirubin passes through the liver and is eventually excreted out of the body.
Higher than normal levels of bilirubin may indicate different types of liver or bile duct problems. Occasionally, higher bilirubin levels may be caused by an increased rate of destruction of red blood cells (hemolysis). Bilirubin testing is usually done as part of a group of tests to check the health of your liver. Bilirubin testing may be done to:
Investigate jaundice ? a yellowing of the skin and eyes caused by elevated levels of bilirubin. A common use of this test is to measure bilirubin levels in newborns to check for infant jaundice.
Determine whether there might be blockage in your bile ducts, in either the liver or the gallbladder.
Help detect liver disease, particularly hepatitis, or monitor its progression.
Help evaluate anemia caused by the destruction of red blood cells.
Help follow how a treatment is working.
Help evaluate a suspected drug toxicity.₹199.00Add to cart -

CA 125
A CA 125 test measures the amount of the protein CA 125 (cancer antigen 125) in the blood.
This test may be used to monitor certain cancers during and after treatment. In some situations, the test may be used to look for early signs of ovarian cancer in people with a very high risk of the disease.
A CA 125 test isn’t accurate enough to use for ovarian cancer screening in general because many conditions can increase the level of this protein.
Conditions that can cause an increase in CA 125 include many that aren’t cancerous, such as menstruation and uterine fibroids. Certain cancers may also cause an increased level of CA 125, including ovarian, endometrial, peritoneal and fallopian tube cancers

C-Peptide (PP)
What is a C-peptide test?
This test measures the level of C-peptide in your blood or urine. C-peptide is a substance made in the pancreas, along with insulin. Insulin is a hormone that controls the body’s glucose (blood sugar) levels. Glucose is your body’s main source of energy. If your body doesn’t make the right amount of insulin, it may be a sign of diabetes.C-peptide and insulin are released from the pancreas at the same time and in about equal amounts. So a C-peptide test can show how much insulin your body is making. This test can be a good way to measure insulin levels because C-peptide tends to stay in the body longer than insulin.

Cholesterol
A complete cholesterol test ? also called a lipid panel or lipid profile ? is a blood test that can measure the amount of cholesterol and triglycerides in your blood.
A cholesterol test can help determine your risk of the buildup of fatty deposits (plaques) in your arteries that can lead to narrowed or blocked arteries throughout your body (atherosclerosis).
A cholesterol test is an important tool. High cholesterol levels often are a significant risk factor for coronary artery disease. High cholesterol usually causes no signs or symptoms. A complete cholesterol test is done to determine whether your cholesterol is high and to estimate your risk of heart attacks and other forms of heart disease and diseases of the blood vessels. You’re generally required to fast, consuming no food or liquids other than water, for nine to 12 hours before the test. Some cholesterol tests don’t require fasting, so follow your doctor’s instructions.

HAV IgG
To determine if viral hepatitis is caused by the hepatitis A virus, hepatitis A testing looks for certain antibodies. Antibodies are substances made by the immune system in response to infection with a virus such as hepatitis A.
Hepatitis A testing looks for two types of antibodies. Antibodies are part of the body?s protective response to a viral infection, and hepatitis A virus antibodies may be measured by a few different tests:
Hepatitis A immunoglobulin M (IgM anti-HAV) antibody test: When a person is first infected with hepatitis A, the body produces IgM anti-HAV antibodies. These antibodies are usually detectable from two weeks after symptoms begin to around six months later.
Hepatitis A immunoglobulin G (IgG anti-HAV) antibody test: The IgG anti-HAV antibody test detects IgG antibodies that develop later in the course of the disease. IgG antibodies are detectable in the body for life, providing protection against a future hepatitis A virus infection. The IgG anti-HAV test is used to detect past HAV infections and may occasionally be used to determine if an individual has developed immunity from a previous infection or vaccination.
Total hepatitis A antibody test: The total HAV antibody test detects both IgM and IgG antibodies and thus is used to identify both current and past infections.
Although testing the blood for HAV antibodies is the gold standard for identifying a hepatitis A infection, other tests may be ordered that instead look for the genetic material of the hepatitis A virus. This type of testing, also called nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT), can detect traces of hepatitis A in a patient?s stool, blood, body fluids, and liver tissue.In many cases, specific hepatitis A testing occurs along with or after blood tests that measure liver function. These tests may include a broad panel of tests, called a liver panel. The measurements in a liver panel can provide information about liver function and inflammation. While these tests can suggest viral hepatitis, they cannot identify the specific virus, which is why antibody testing may be prescribed to confirm the underlying cause.

Free T3
This test is done to check your thyroid function. Thyroid function depends on the action of T3 and other hormones, including thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and T4.
Sometimes it can be useful to measure both T3 and T4 when evaluating thyroid function.
The total T3 test measures the T3 that is both attached to proteins and floating free in the blood.
The free T3 test measures the T3 that is floating free in the blood. The tests for free T3 are generally less accurate than for total T3.
Your provider may recommend this test if you have signs of a thyroid disorder, including:
The pituitary gland does not produce normal amounts of some or all of its hormone (hypopituitarism)
Overactive thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism)
Underactive thyroid gland (hypothyroidism)
