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.

Free PSA
A free prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test is used to confirm test results from a PSA test. A PSA test is used to see if you may have prostate cancer. The test measures the level of PSA in your blood. If your levels are high, you may have a condition that?s not serious, such as a prostate that?s enlarged or inflamed prostate, or you might have prostate cancer. A free PSA test may be used instead of a biopsy to rule out prostate cancer, though you may still need a biopsy if your free PSA test results indicate a risk of cancer.

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)
Taking medicines for hypothyroidism₹243.00Add 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.

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.

Free Testosterone
This test measures the amount of unattached, or “free,” testosterone in your blood.
Testosterone is a male sex hormone (androgen) that helps male features develop. Most testosterone is made in the testes (in men) and the ovaries (in women). A small amount is made in the adrenal glands.
Testosterone causes the changes that occur in boys during puberty. It helps hair and muscles grow. It also helps the penis and testes grow. Testosterone also causes a boy’s voice to deepen. Men continue to make testosterone. It boosts sex drive and helps make sperm.
Women’s ovaries also make small amounts of testosterone. It helps many organs and body processes in women.
The pituitary gland in your brain controls the amount of testosterone your body makes.
Most of the testosterone in your blood attaches to 2 proteins: albumin and sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG). Some testosterone is free, which means it is not attached to proteins. Free testosterone and albumin-bound testosterone are also referred to as bioavailable testosterone. This is the testosterone that is easily used by your body.
If your healthcare provider thinks that you have low or high testosterone, your total testosterone levels will be checked first. This looks at all 3 types of testosterone. The free testosterone can help give more information when total testosterone is low.
Both men and women can have health problems because of low or high levels of testosterone. Women with high levels of testosterone may have polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). This condition can cause:

FSH
Why the Test is Performed
In women, FSH helps manage the menstrual cycle and stimulates the ovaries to produce eggs. The test is used to help diagnose or evaluate:Menopause
Women who have polycystic ovary syndrome, ovarian cysts
Abnormal vaginal or menstrual bleeding
Problems becoming pregnant, or infertility
In men, FSH stimulates production of sperm. The test is used to help diagnose or evaluate:Problems becoming pregnant, or infertility
Men who do not have testicles or whose testicles are underdeveloped
In children, FSH is involved with the development of sexual features. The test is ordered for children:Who develop sexual features at a very young age
Who are delayed in starting puberty
Normal Results
Normal FSH levels will differ, depending on a person’s age and sex.Male:
Before puberty: 0 to 5.0 mIU/mL (0 to 5.0 IU/L)
During puberty: 0.3 to 10.0 mIU/mL (0.3 to 10.0 IU/L)
Adult: 1.5 to 12.4 mIU/mL (1.5 to 12.4 IU/L)
Female:Before puberty: 0 to 4.0 mIU/mL (0 to 4.0 IU/L)
During puberty: 0.3 to 10.0 mIU/mL (0.3 to 10.0 IU/L)
Women who are still menstruating: 4.7 to 21.5 mIU/mL (4.5 to 21.5 IU/L)
After menopause: 25.8 to 134.8 mIU/mL (25.8 to 134.8 IU/L)
Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Some labs use different measurements or test different samples. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test result.What Abnormal Results Mean
High FSH levels in women may be present:During or after menopause, including premature menopause
When receiving hormone therapy
Due to certain types of tumor in the pituitary gland
Due to Turner syndrome
Low FSH levels in women may be present due to:Being very underweight or having had recent rapid weight loss
Not producing eggs (not ovulating)
Parts of the brain (the pituitary gland or hypothalamus) not producing normal amounts of some or all of its hormones
Pregnancy
High FSH levels in men may mean the testicles are not functioning correctly due to:Advancing age (male menopause)
Damage to testicles caused by alcohol abuse, chemotherapy, or radiation
Problems with genes, such as Klinefelter syndrome
Treatment with hormones
Certain tumors in the pituitary gland
Low FSH levels in men may mean parts of the brain (the pituitary gland or hypothalamus) do not produce normal amounts of some or all of its hormones.High FSH levels in boys or girls may mean that puberty is about to start.
Risks
There is little risk involved with having your blood taken. Veins and arteries vary in size from one person to another and from one side of the body to the other. Taking blood from some people may be more difficult than from others.Other risks associated with having blood drawn are slight, but may include:
Excessive bleeding
Fainting or feeling lightheaded
Multiple punctures to locate veins
Hematoma (blood accumulating under the skin)
Infection (a slight risk any time the skin is broken)₹292.00Add to cart -
Gamma GT
A gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) test measures the amount of GGT in the blood. GGT is an enzyme found throughout the body, but it is mostly found in the liver. When the liver is damaged, GGT may leak into the bloodstream. High levels of GGT in the blood may be a sign of liver disease or damage to the bile ducts. Bile ducts are tubes that carry bile in and out of the liver. Bile is a fluid made by the liver. It is important for digestion.
A GGT test can’t diagnose the specific cause of liver disease. So it is usually done along with or after other liver function tests, most often an alkaline phosphatase (ALP) test. ALP is another type of liver enzyme. It’s often used to help diagnose bone disorders as well as liver disease.

Globulin
Globulins are a group of proteins in your blood. They are made in your liver by your immune system. Globulins play an important role in liver function, blood clotting, and fighting infection. There are different types of globulins called alpha, beta, and gamma globulins. Tests to measure globulins include:
Total protein test. This blood test measures the total amount of protein in your blood. The two main types of blood proteins are globulins and albumin. If protein levels are low, it can mean that you have liver or kidney disease.
Serum protein electrophoresis. This blood test measures the level of each type of protein in your blood, including the different types of globulins. The levels of specific globulins provide information about how well your immune system is working. So, this test can be used to diagnose disorders of the immune system, a type of cancer called multiple myeloma, and a variety of other conditions.₹130.00Add to cart -

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.

Hba1C (Glycosylated hemoglobin)
The A1c test is a common test that measures how much sugar has been in your blood over the previous few months. It?s used to diagnose diabetes or determine how well a person with the disease has been managing their blood sugar. Some people have different types of hemoglobin (red blood cell protein) that may affect results.
