Full Blood Count (FBC)

A Full Blood Count (FBC) blood test evaluates various blood components, helping to detect a wide range of health conditions. Each biomarker in the FBC has a specific role in assessing overall health

Red Blood Cells (RBC): These cells are responsible for transporting oxygen throughout the body. Abnormal RBC levels can indicate anemia (low RBC) or other blood disorders.

White Blood Cells (WBC): WBCs are crucial for immune defense, fighting infections, and responding to inflammation. An elevated WBC count could signal an infection or inflammatory condition, while low levels may suggest a weakened immune system.

Haemoglobin (Hb): Haemoglobin, found in RBCs, carries oxygen to tissues. Low hemoglobin levels can indicate anaemia, which can lead to fatigue and weakness.

Haematocrit (Hct): This is the percentage of blood made up of RBCs. It helps assess the blood's ability to carry oxygen. Low haematocrit levels may suggest anaemia, while high levels can indicate dehydration or other issues.

Platelets: Platelets are essential for blood clotting. Low platelet counts can lead to excessive bleeding, while high counts might increase the risk of blood clots.

Liver Function Tests:

Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT): ALT is an enzyme found mainly in the liver. It helps convert amino acids and plays a role in liver metabolism. Elevated ALT levels often indicate liver damage or disease, such as hepatitis or fatty liver disease.

Albumin: Albumin is a protein made by the liver that helps maintain blood volume and pressure by preventing fluid from leaking into tissues. Low levels can suggest liver disease, kidney disease, or malnutrition.

Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP): ALP is an enzyme found in the liver, bones, and other tissues. Elevated ALP levels can indicate liver disease, bile duct obstruction or bone disorders.

Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST): AST is an enzyme found in the liver, heart, muscles and kidneys. High AST levels can signal liver damage, heart disease or muscle injury, but it’s not as specific to liver function as ALT.

Bilirubin: Bilirubin is a waste product produced from the breakdown of red blood cells. It is processed by the liver and excreted in bile. High bilirubin levels can cause jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes) and may indicate liver dysfunction or bile duct blockage.

Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase (GGT): GGT is an enzyme found in the liver and bile ducts. Elevated GGT levels may indicate liver disease, alcohol use or bile duct obstruction. It is particularly useful in diagnosing liver disease related to alcohol consumption.

Globulin: Globulins are a group of proteins in the blood that help with immune function, blood clotting and transport of substances. Low or high levels can indicate liver disease, kidney disease or immune disorders.

Total Protein: Total protein measures the combined amount of albumin and globulin in the blood. It provides an overall view of protein levels in the body. Abnormal levels can indicate liver or kidney disease, malnutrition or immune system disorders.

Hormones:

Prolactin: Primarily responsible for milk production in women, but elevated levels in men can affect fertility and sexual function.

Oestradiol: A form of estrogen, important in balancing male hormone levels. High levels in men can indicate imbalances or conditions like gynecomastia

Testosterone: The primary male sex hormone, influencing libido, muscle mass, and overall energy. Low levels can lead to fatigue, reduced libido and muscle loss.

Free Testosterone: The active form of testosterone that affects muscle mass, libido, and energy. Low levels can indicate low testosterone or other health concerns.

Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate (DHEAS) : It's a hormone produced by the adrenal glands that acts as a precursor to sex hormones. It influences energy, mood and libido. Low levels may be linked to fatigue, depression

 

or age-related conditions.

Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin (SHBG): A protein that binds to sex hormones, including testosterone. Low SHBG may indicate testosterone imbalances, while high levels can affect hormone activity.

Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA): PSA is a protein produced by the prostate gland. A PSA test measures its level in the blood and is primarily used to screen for prostate cancer. Elevated PSA levels can also indicate benign prostate enlargement or inflammation (prostatitis), further testing is required to determine the exact cause.
