When tiredness, hair fall or pallor suggest iron deficiency, these two tests settle the main question quickly. The blood count shows haemoglobin and the size of red cells, which shrink in iron deficiency. Iron studies add the iron level, binding capacity and saturation, which show how much iron is available and how hungry the body is for it. The pair is economical and enough for most uncomplicated cases. If the results are not clear, for example when inflammation is suspected, your doctor can step up to a panel that includes more markers.
The two-test starting point for suspected iron deficiency: iron studies and a complete blood count.
The 2 tests are grouped into 2 health areas:
Blood count & inflammation 1 test
Red cells, white cells and platelets, blood group, and general inflammation markers.
RBC count, haemoglobin, haematocrit, WBC count with differential (neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils), platelet count, and red-cell indices (MCV, MCH, MCHC).
Iron & anaemia 1 test
Iron stores and red-cell production - the commonest causes of anaemia and tiredness.
Serum iron, TIBC, UIBC (unsaturated iron-binding capacity), transferrin saturation percentage, and ferritin (the body’s iron-storage protein).
Designed for
Men & women
Age group
All ages
Purpose
Health screening
People who suspect iron deficiency, teenagers and women with heavy periods, blood donors, and those with a diet low in iron.
How often should you get it done?
Once to confirm, and again after about three months of treatment.
Not everyone needs every test. Whether this package suits you depends on your age, symptoms, family history and any ongoing treatment - your doctor can advise.
The package can provide information about:
A package gives individual results for each test - it does not diagnose disease by itself.
Book
Book this package online and pick a time slot, or call us and we'll book it for you.
Prepare
Fast for 8 to 10 hours and follow the preparation above.
Collect
A trained phlebotomist collects all samples in one home visit - no extra charge.
Process
Each sample is processed in our laboratory and reviewed by a pathologist.
Report
Reports are shared on WhatsApp and email, usually within 24 hours.
Your report lists the result of each test separately, with its own unit and reference range. Values outside the range are highlighted.
There is no single overall "health score" - each result is read on its own and then together with the others. One out-of-range value is not a diagnosis, and a normal report does not guarantee you are completely healthy.
Share the report with your doctor, who will interpret it with your symptoms and history. Call us if you need help reading it.

Key Tests Included
Iron in the blood climbs after a meal or an iron supplement, which can make a deficient person look normal. Eight to ten hours without food gives a truer reading.
In many cases yes. Low iron with high binding capacity and small red cells is a classic pattern. If the picture is mixed, your doctor may add ferritin or inflammation markers.
Skip the dose on the morning of the test if your doctor agrees. Taking it before the sample can raise the iron value temporarily.
