Individual tests

17-OH-Progesterone test is used for screening and diagnosing Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH).
This test determines whether or not you have adequate apo A-I levels, diagnosing specific apo A deficiency and helping assess your risk of developing coronary heart disease.
Apolipoprotein B (or Apo B, for short) is a protein that helps carry fat and cholesterol through your body. Your body needs fat and cholesterol to produce hormones and keep cells healthy. As they don't dissolve well in the blood, they may cause plaque buildup in your blood vessels, possibly leading to heart disease.
Apolipoprotein B/Apolipoprotein A-1 ratio is an index reflecting the balance between atherogenic lipoprotein particles and anti-atherogenic lipoprotein particles. When this balance is disrupted, atherosclerosis progresses, leading to stroke. Additionally, the ApoB/ApoA-1 ratio is also a strong predictor of cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction, angina, and heart failure, compared to conventional lipid tests like total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-cholesterol, and HDL-cholesterol.
The test measures a hormone called hCG, produced during pregnancy by the placenta and found in the blood and urine. Testing for hCG can be done as early as ten days after conception to determine if you are pregnant. Measuring hCG can also help identify potential complications.
Creatinine is a waste product your muscles produce as part of regular, everyday activities. Normally, your kidneys filter creatinine from your blood and send it out of the body in your urine. If there is a kidney problem, creatinine can build up in the blood, and less will be released in urine.

First-trimester screening has three parts, an ultrasound test for fetal nuchal translucency (NT), PAPP-A, and hCG. When used together, NT screening and maternal blood tests can better determine potential birth defects, such as Down syndrome, Edward syndrome, or Patau syndrome. Amniocentesis or other ultrasound procedures may also be necessary for accurate diagnosis if the results are abnormal.
Creatinine is a waste byproduct of normal muscle activity. The kidneys remove creatinine from the blood and it is then excreted through urine. A creatinine clearance test assesses how well the kidneys filter blood and is important for detecting and monitoring kidney problems.
The creatinine clearance test helps assess how well the kidneys are working. This test compares creatinine levels in urine and blood.
Your kidneys have tiny filters called glomeruli which remove waste and excess fluid from blood. A glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a blood test that checks how well your kidneys work by estimating how much blood passes through these filters each minute.
HDL (high-density lipoprotein) cholesterol is seen as “good” cholesterol because it helps absorb cholesterol in the blood and carries it back to the liver. The liver then flushes it from the body. High HDL cholesterol levels mean you have a lower risk of heart disease and stroke.
HPV is short for human papillomavirus, a very common sexually transmitted infection divided into different types, each identified with a number. HPV types including 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 66, and 68 are high-risk types known to significantly increase the risk of cervical, vaginal, and vulvar cancer in women, as well as penile cancer in men. These types can also cause anal cancer and throat cancers in men and women.
HPV is short for human papillomavirus, a very common sexually transmitted infection divided into different types, each identified with a number. High-risk HPVs (HPV 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 66, and 68) can cause several types of cancer. Two of these, HPV16 and HPV18, are responsible for most HPV-related cancers. Low-risk HPVs are mostly asymptomatic. Sometimes, they may cause warts on or around the genitals, anus, mouth, or throat.
