LIPID PROFILE (Blood Cholestrol test)
This is a panel of blood tests used to measure the level of specific lipids like cholesterol, triglycerides in blood. Results can show approximate risk of heart disease.
Blood.
Inform your doctor if you are on any medications or have any underlying medical conditions or allergies before undergoing this test. For this test, fasting for at least 8 to 12 hours is recommended.
Lipids are a group of fats and fat-like substances that are important constituents of cells and sources of energy. Cholesterol and triglycerides are the two important lipids. Cholesterol and triglycerides are transported are circulated into the blood through lipoprotein particles. High-density lipoproteins (HDL) are considered as good cholesterol and low-density lipoproteins (LDL) is considered as bad cholesterol. High-density cholesterol carries cholesterol to the liver from various parts of your body. LDL gets attached to the walls of arteries and clogs them. This leads to a condition called atherosclerosis.

Free T3
This is a test used to evaluate the proper functioning of the thyroid gland and monitor thyroid treatment.
Blood.
Acute illness may affect thyroid testing test results. It is generally recommended that thyroid testing be avoided in hospitalized patients Inform the doctor if you are on any medications, have any allergies or underlying medical conditions before this test.
Triiodothyronine (T3) is one of two major hormones produced by the thyroid gland, the other major thyroid hormone is called thyroxine (T4) and together they help control the rate at which the body uses energy. If the thyroid gland produces excessive amounts of T4 and T3, then the person affected may have symptoms associated with overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism), such as nervousness, tremors of the hands, weight loss, insomnia, and puffiness around dry, irritated eyes and in some cases, bulging eyes. Insufficient amounts of T4 and T3, then the person may have signs and symptoms associated with underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) and a slowed metabolism, such as weight gain, dry skin, fatigue, and constipation

Free T4
This is a test used to evaluate the proper functioning of the thyroid gland and monitor thyroid treatment.
Blood.
If you take thyroid hormone as treatment for thyroid disease, it is recommended that your blood sample be drawn before you take your dose for that day. Acute illness may also affect thyroid testing results so it is generally recommended that thyroid testing be avoided in hospitalized patients. Inform the doctor if you are on any medications, have any allergies or underlying medical conditions before this test.
Most of the hormone produced by the thyroid is T4. This hormone is relatively inactive, but it is converted into the much more active T3 in the liver and other tissues. If the thyroid gland does not produce sufficient T4 and T3 (underactive thyroid), due to thyroid dysfunction or to insufficient TSH, then the affected person experiences symptoms of hypothyroidism such as weight gain, dry skin, cold intolerance, irregular menstruation, and fatigue. If the thyroid gland produces too much T4 and T3, the affected person may experience symptoms associated with overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism), such as rapid heart rate, anxiety, weight loss, difficulty sleeping, tremors in the hands, and puffiness around dry, irritated eyes and in some cases, bulging eyes.

Estradiol
An estradiol test is a simple blood test to measure the amount of estradiol hormone during assessment of fertility or treatment.
Blood.
None, but early morning samples are preferred and the timing of a woman’s sample will be correlated with her menstrual cycle or, if pregnant, with the gestational age of the baby.
Estradiol (E2) is primarily produced in the ovaries under stimulation of FSH and LH in pre-menopausal women and in the testicles in men. E2 is converted from E1 in post-menopausal women. It is the most potent estrogen and the one that is present in the highest concentration in non-pregnant, pre-menopausal women. E2 levels vary depending on a woman’s age and reproductive status. They are a good marker of ovarian function. Increased or decreased levels of estrogens are seen in many metabolic conditions i.e. Hyperthyroidism, Cirrhosis, Turner syndrome, hypopituitarism, female hypogonadism, Polycystic ovary syndrome.

Follicle Stimulating Hormone
This blood test measures level of Follicle Stimulating Hormone(FSH) in the blood which is responsible for fertility.
Blood.
No test preparation is needed, but early morning samples are preferred and a woman’s sample should be collected at specific times during her menstrual cycle.
FSH is made by the pituitary gland located in the brain, In women of childbearing age, FSH stimulates the growth and maturation of eggs (follicles) in the ovaries during the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle. In men, FSH stimulates the testicles to produce mature sperm and also promotes the production of androgen binding proteins. Disorders affecting the hypothalamus, pituitary, and/or the ovaries or testicles can cause the production of too much or too little FSH, resulting in a variety of conditions such as infertility, abnormal menstrual cycles, or early (precocious) or delayed puberty.

Luitenising Hormone
This test measures the amount of luteinizing hormone in the blood. (LH) is a hormone associated with reproduction. Its stimulation of either ovary or testicles results in the release of an egg from the ovary (ovulation) in women or testosterone production in men.
Blood.
Early morning samples are preferred. A woman’s sample should be collected at specific times during her menstrual cycle. Inform the doctor if you are on any medications, have any allergies or underlying medical conditions before this test.
LH is produced by the pituitary gland. In women of childbearing age, several hormones (LH, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), estrogen and progesterone) rise and fall in a specific sequence during each menstrual cycle. In men, LH stimulates Leydig cells in the testicles to produce testosterone. In infants and children, LH levels rise shortly after birth and then fall to very low levels. Results of an LH test are typically considered with results of other hormone tests, such as FSH, estrogens, and/or testosterone.

Testosterone
This test measures the level of testosterone in the blood. Testosterone is the main sex hormone (androgen) in men. It is responsible for male physical characteristics. Although it is considered to be a “male” sex hormone, it is present in the blood of both men and women.
Blood.
Early morning samples are preferred. A woman’s sample should be collected at specific times during her menstrual cycle. Inform the doctor if you are on any medications, have any allergies or underlying medical conditions before this test.
Testosterone is mainly produced by special endocrine tissue (the Leydig cells) in the male testicles. It is also produced by the adrenal glands in both males and females and, in small amounts, by the ovaries in females.

Progesterone
This is a test used to help check for possible causes of infertility, monitor or detect a failing pregnancy as well as tracking fertility treatments.This measures progesterone levels in blood.
Blood.
None, however early morning samples are preferred and for women, the date of your last menstrual period or trimester of pregnancy should be noted.
After ovulation, a corpus luteum forms in the ovary at the site where the egg was released and begins to produce progesterone. This progesterone, supplemented by small amounts produced by the adrenal glands, stops endometrial growth and readies the uterus for the possible implantation of a fertilized egg. If fertilization does not occur, the corpus luteum degenerates, progesterone levels drop, and menstrual bleeding begins. If a fertilized egg is implanted in the uterus, the corpus luteum continues to produce progesterone, with the egg forming a trophoblast that produces human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). After several weeks, the placenta replaces the corpus luteum as the main source of progesterone, producing relatively large amounts of the hormone throughout the rest of a normal pregnancy.While men have small amounts of progesterone in their blood, progesterone is usually not tested in men, unless specific adrenal diseases are suspected. Progesterone does not have an established role in males.

Troponin I
Troponin tests measure the level of cardiac-specific troponin in the blood to help detect heart injury or recent heart attack.
Blood.
No specific patient preparation protocol required. Inform the doctor if you are on any medications, have any allergies or underlying medical conditions before this test.
Troponins are a group of proteins found in skeletal and heart (cardiac) muscle fibers that regulate muscular contraction. Normally, troponin is present in very small to undetectable quantities in the blood. When there is damage to heart muscle cells, troponin is released into the blood. The more damage there is, the greater the concentration in the blood. Primarily, troponin tests are used to help determine if an individual has suffered a heart attack. They may also be helpful in evaluating someone for other forms of heart injury. When a person has a heart attack, levels of cardiac-specific troponins I and T can become elevated in the blood within 3 or 4 hours after injury and may remain elevated for 10 to 14 days.
