What gets tested?
Assess your body’s iron levels and pinpoint the cause of fatigue with a complete iron status profile. Iron is essential for producing red blood cells and carrying oxygen throughout your body.
This test identifies whether you are at risk of iron deficiency, evaluates existing anaemia, or checks for dangerous iron overload.
Common Symptoms of Low Iron
Constant tiredness and low energy
Shortness of breath
Heart palpitations
Unusually pale skin
Frequent headaches
Key Markers Tested
Serum Iron: Reveals the current amount of iron circulating in your blood.
Total Iron-Binding Capacity (TIBC): Evaluates how effectively your blood proteins transport iron.
Transferrin Saturation: Shows the percentage of iron bound to transferrin to measure overall iron usability.
Ferritin: Measures your body’s long-term iron storage and serves as a key indicator of inflammation.
Why Take This Test?
Knowing your iron status allows you to safely correct deficiencies through diet and targeted supplements. It also screens for haemochromatosis—a genetic condition causing high iron accumulation that requires early medical management.
