1. FERRITIN
The Ferritin Test measures the amount of ferritin in your blood, indicating your body’s total iron stores.
It helps diagnose and monitor iron-related conditions like anemia and iron overload disorders, providing crucial insights into your iron metabolism.
A simple blood sample is collected and analyzed to determine ferritin levels, usually requiring no special preparation.
Low levels suggest iron deficiency, while high levels can indicate iron overload, chronic inflammation, or liver disease.
Frequency depends on individual health conditions and risk factors. Consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
