  • Healthy Ovary Test

    Healthy Ovary Test

    Are Your Hormones Supporting Optimal Ovarian Health?

    Hormonal imbalances affect millions of women worldwide, yet they’re often misunderstood as “normal” monthly changes or dismissed entirely. One in ten women of reproductive age suffer from polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), but many struggle for years with irregular periods, fertility issues, and unexplained symptoms before receiving proper diagnosis, leaving countless women feeling frustrated and confused about their bodies.

    When your hormones are out of balance, your ovarian function suffers, creating a cascade of symptoms that can dramatically impact your quality of life. Hormonal problems in women often involve imbalances like excess androgen or insulin resistance, which can disrupt normal ovarian function. The result? Irregular or absent periods, fertility problems, excessive hair growth, stubborn weight gain, or mood changes.

    Early detection through hormone testing can transform your understanding of your body and guide you toward targeted treatment. Whether you’re dealing with PCOS, hyperandrogenism, or fertility concerns, identifying the root cause of your symptoms is the first step toward reclaiming your hormonal balance and overall wellbeing.

    Why Your Healthy Ovary Test Results Matter

    Your hormones serve as your body’s chemical messengers, playing critical roles in:

    • Regulating menstrual cycles and ovulation
    • Supporting fertility and reproductive health
    • Maintaining healthy metabolism and weight management
    • Balancing energy levels and mood stability
    • Supporting bone health and cardiovascular function
    • Regulating hair growth and skin health
    • Controlling insulin sensitivity and blood sugar levels
    • Managing stress response and sleep patterns

    What Does the Test Measure?

    Urea & Creatinine
    Markers of kidney function and protein metabolism, helping assess hydration status, muscle breakdown, and metabolic load.

    Urate
    Monitors purine metabolism; elevated levels may indicate risk of gout or kidney stress.

    Supports bone health, muscle function, and immune response. Adequate levels are critical for athletic performance and injury prevention.

    HbA1c
    Provides insight into long-term blood sugar regulation, metabolic health, and energy availability.

    Creatine Kinase (CK)
    A marker of muscle stress or damage, helping monitor recovery and avoid overtraining.

    C-Reactive Protein (CRP)
    Detects systemic inflammation, which can affect recovery, endurance, and general health.

    Total IgE
    Assesses potential allergic or immune responses that may impact performance or recovery.

    Full Blood Count (FBC) with Platelets & ESR
    Evaluates overall blood health, oxygen-carrying capacity, and chronic inflammatory status.

    Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) & Free T4
    Key indicators of thyroid function, metabolism, and energy regulation — critical for athletes and active individuals.

    Why Test?

  • Herpes Test

    Herpes Test

    Two Types of Herpes: What You Need to Know

    Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 (HSV-1 / Oral Herpes)

    HSV-1 is a contagious infection that can be spread through intimate contact with an infected person. The initial infection is usually the worst, and recurring infections tend to be milder.

    Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 (HSV-2 / Genital Herpes)

    HSV-2 is generally transmitted during sex through contact with genital or anal surfaces, skin, sores or fluids of someone infected with the virus. HSV-2 can be transmitted even if the skin looks normal and is often transmitted in the absence of symptoms.

    The Good News

    While herpes cannot be cured, it can be effectively managed with proper treatment. Early detection means:

    • Faster pain relief
    • Reduced transmission risk to partners
    • Better long-term management
    • Fewer and less severe outbreaks

    Our non-invasive, DNA test for Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) types 1 & 2, is self-sampling and gives you accurate results without an embarrassing doctor’s visit.
