Analyzes. Which, how often and what for?

Most people don't like getting tested even more than seeing a doctor. In principle, it is quite expected. Some analyzes are really not the most pleasant process. And the price lists of private clinics offer so many different examinations that it is very difficult to understand on your own what is really important and what is secondary and is not worth being done without a doctor's prescription.


Let's try to figure out which analyses are mandatory for men and women every year?


  • Blood test for biochemistry and sugar


From the indications of this analysis, you can check the state of the internal parts of the body: pancreas, liver and kidneys, which trace elements show deficit, whether there is an infection in the body, and, of course, find out the sugar level.


  • Analysis for thyroid-stimulating hormone


Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) plays a major role in the regulation of the thyroid gland and also is responsible for the intake of iodine. So, based on these results, you can determine the state of the thyroid gland.


  • Iron / ferritin, vitamin B12, magnesium


These indicators are extremely important for the functions of the central nervous system, transfer of oxygen to the cells and muscles, regulation of blood pressure and heart work. By improving these indicators, well-being will noticeably improve.


  • Vitamin D


Vitamin D is also responsible for the regulation of blood pressure, heart work, bone strength. Furthermore vitamin D helps to protect the body from colds and diabetes and raises immunity. Despite the fact that the deficiency is most susceptible to the elderly and those who rarely go outdoors, everyone should check it out.


  • Lipid panel


These tests show cholesterol and triglyceride levels. It will help to assess the risk of atherosclerosis.


  • C-reactive protein and homocysteine


These markers indicate many factors: the presence of inflammation in the body, risk of stroke and atherosclerosis and body's ability to detoxify and produce neurotransmitters.



Also for women:


  • Tests for the presence of CA-125 and CA 15-3 tumor markers


These are antibodies against ovarian, uterine and breast cancers.


  • Tests for follicle-stimulating hormone and estradiol


These hormones in the body are responsible for women's health, good mood and fertility.



Also for men:


  • Testosterone test


Check for hypogonadism pathology and testicular tumor.

 

  • Free PSA analysis


This test determines the concentration of free prostatic antigen required to detect neoplasms and tumors of the prostate gland.




The rest of the tests will already be prescribed by the doctors. This can be during a routine examination.

Keep track of the digitization status. After successful digitization of the document, you will receive a PUSH notification. You can also follow the recognition status in the Documents section or in the history of actions in the control panel.



Since all data is now stored in digital in one place, observing the dynamics has become so simple, so why not use such convenience for taking care of your health? 


At last, the list is not that long for annual research. But, as we have already found out, how important it is! The early detection of an immune response going haywire gives us an advantage: we are able to start therapy. Sometimes everything ends even without any consequences, because everything is corrected in time.
