Anaemia Profile
This comprehensive blood profile evaluates your overall blood health and helps identify potential causes of anaemia. It assesses red blood cells responsible for carrying oxygen, white blood cells involved in immune defence, and platelets that aid normal blood clotting.
The test also measures inflammation through the ESR marker and provides an in-depth analysis of iron health, including iron levels, ferritin (iron storage), transferrin and transferrin saturation (iron transport), as well as TIBC and UIBC (iron-binding capacity). Folate and vitamin B12 levels are also checked, as both are vital for healthy red blood cell production.
Useful for: Investigating fatigue, weakness, low energy, or symptoms linked to anaemia, while helping identify whether the cause may be iron deficiency, vitamin deficiencies, inflammation, or other blood-related conditions.
