Total amount of cholesterol in your blood.

High levels increase risk of heart disease. Women's cholesterol levels often change during menopause.

"Good" cholesterol that removes harmful cholesterol from arteries.

Women typically have higher HDL levels than men, providing cardiovascular protection, especially before menopause.

Ratio of protective HDL to total cholesterol.

Higher percentages indicate better cardiovascular health and reduced heart disease risk.

"Bad" cholesterol that can build up in artery walls.

High levels increase risk of heart attack and stroke. Risk increases significantly after menopause.

Type of fat found in blood, stored for energy.

High levels increase heart disease risk and may indicate PCOS or metabolic syndrome in women.

All "bad" cholesterol types combined (total cholesterol minus HDL).

Better predictor of cardiovascular risk, especially important for women with diabetes or PCOS.

Ratio of total cholesterol to protective HDL cholesterol.

Lower ratios indicate better cardiovascular health and reduced heart disease risk.

Apolipoprotein A1 (Apo A1) is a protein that plays a crucial role in lipid metabolism, particularly in the transport of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.

Elevated levels of Apo A1 are generally associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery disease and atherosclerosis. Apo A1 is considered a good indicator of HDL cholesterol levels, often referred to as "good cholesterol" due to its protective effects on the cardiovascular system.

Low levels of Apo A1 may indicate metabolic disorders, liver diseases, or certain genetic conditions. Additionally, low Apo A1 levels have been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases.

Apolipoprotein B is a protein found in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, commonly referred to as "bad" cholesterol.

Elevated levels of Apolipoprotein B are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, including heart attack and stroke. This marker may be used to help diagnose and monitor these conditions.

Many experts consider Apolipoprotein B to be a more accurate predictor of cardiovascular risk than LDL cholesterol alone, as it measures the actual number of atherogenic particles in the blood.

The ratio of Apolipoprotein A1 to Apolipoprotein B provides valuable insight into cardiovascular risk.

A higher ratio indicates a more favourable balance between protective HDL particles and atherogenic LDL particles. This ratio is considered one of the most powerful predictors of cardiovascular disease risk.

Lower ratios suggest an increased risk of developing atherosclerosis and heart disease.

VLDL (Very Low-Density Lipoprotein) is a type of cholesterol that can contribute to heart disease. This calculated value measures the amount of VLDL in your blood.

VLDL particles carry triglycerides throughout the body and can contribute to the buildup of plaque in arteries. Elevated VLDL levels are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.

High VLDL is often linked to metabolic syndrome, obesity, and type 2 diabetes. Managing diet, exercise, and weight can help reduce VLDL levels.

Helps identify mixed anaemia types or developing nutritional deficiencies.

Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) is a protein produced by the prostate gland. This test measures the level of PSA in the blood and is primarily used to screen for prostate cancer.

Elevated levels of PSA may indicate prostate cancer, but can also be caused by non-cancerous conditions such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) or prostatitis. Further diagnostic tests are usually required to confirm a diagnosis.

Age, race, family history, and certain medications can affect PSA levels. The test should be interpreted in conjunction with other clinical findings and individual risk factors. Regular PSA screening is recommended for men over 50.

Primary female sex hormone responsible for reproductive and sexual development.

Levels fluctuate throughout menstrual cycle. Low levels indicate menopause or ovarian dysfunction.

Hormone that regulates menstrual cycle and maintains pregnancy.

Deficiency particularly common in women, affecting bone density and increasing osteoporosis risk.

Waste product filtered by healthy kidneys.

High levels indicate reduced kidney function. Women typically have lower levels than men due to less muscle mass.

Waste product from protein breakdown that kidneys should filter out.

Elevated levels may indicate kidney problems, dehydration, or high protein diet.

Estimated glomerular filtration rate measuring kidney efficiency.

Values below 60 indicate kidney disease requiring medical monitoring and lifestyle changes.

Essential mineral maintaining fluid balance and nerve/muscle function.

Abnormal levels affect blood pressure, hydration, and hormonal balance.

Shows average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months.

Essential for diabetes diagnosis and monitoring. Values above 42 mmol/mol indicate diabetes, while 42-47 mmol/mol suggests prediabetes.

Insulin is a hormone that regulates blood sugar levels. Measuring insulin levels provides information about the body's ability to produce and utilise insulin effectively.

This test is commonly used to diagnose and monitor diabetes mellitus. In type 1 diabetes, the body does not produce enough insulin, while in type 2 diabetes, the body becomes resistant to the effects of insulin. Insulin testing can help differentiate between these two types.

Additionally, insulin testing may be used to diagnose insulinoma (a tumour of the pancreas that produces excessive insulin), hypoglycemia (low blood sugar levels), and metabolic syndrome.

This test measures the level of glucose (sugar) in the blood. Glucose is the primary source of energy for the body's cells.

This test helps diagnose and monitor diabetes by measuring blood sugar levels. It can also identify hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) which can cause dizziness, confusion, and fainting, or hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) which may indicate uncontrolled diabetes.

Glucose testing may be part of routine health check-ups or screenings to identify potential diabetes or prediabetes. Fasting glucose levels above 7 mmol/L may indicate diabetes.
