Iron Test

The Iron Test measures the amount of iron in your blood, providing essential insight into how well your body produces red blood cells and transports oxygen throughout the body. Iron is a critical mineral for energy production, muscle function, and organ health, and imbalances can significantly impact how you feel and function day to day.

Low iron levels can lead to iron deficiency anemia, a common condition that may cause fatigue, weakness, dizziness, headaches, and shortness of breath. Because symptoms can be subtle or develop gradually, iron deficiency often goes unnoticed without blood testing. Early detection allows for timely treatment before symptoms worsen.

Excess iron can also be harmful. High iron levels may contribute to joint pain, abdominal discomfort, fatigue, and long-term organ damage if left untreated. Monitoring iron levels helps identify iron overload conditions and prevents complications related to excess iron storage.

This Iron Test provides a straightforward assessment of iron status and is commonly used to evaluate unexplained fatigue, support anemia diagnosis, and monitor iron supplementation or treatment effectiveness. It serves as a foundational tool for understanding iron balance and overall blood health.
