What This Iron Test Measures

Iron Status & Storage

  • Iron: The amount of iron circulating in your blood
  • Ferritin: A protein that stores iron — an early and accurate marker of iron deficiency
  • Transferrin & TIBC: Indicate how much iron your blood can carry and bind
  • Transferrin Saturation: Shows how much transferrin is actually carrying iron — helps identify both deficiency and overload
This test helps detect
  • Iron deficiency anaemia
  • Iron overload (hemochromatosis)
  • Poor iron absorption or malnutrition
  • Fatigue caused by low iron levels

Who Should Take This Test

How Our Iron Panel Test Works

1 3

  • Place Your Order

    Place your order online and receive a test kit delivered to your home. You’ll need to bring this kit with you to your scheduled appointment at one of our partner blood collection clinics.

  • Attend Your Appointment

    At your chosen clinic, a trained nurse or phlebotomist will collect your blood sample using the kit you bring. If a sample collection courier is not available at the site, you’ll be asked to take the sealed sample with you and post it using the prepaid packaging provided.

  • Access Your Results

    Once your results are ready, you’ll receive an email notification to log in and view them securely via your private portal. Please note: venous blood test results are not automatically reviewed by a doctor. We recommend booking a consultation with a qualified clinician to help you interpret and understand your results fully.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What’s a normal ferritin level?

  • Women: 20–200 ng/mL
  • Men: 30–300 ng/mL
    (Ranges may vary slightly by lab.)

Do I need to fast for this test?

Yes — fasting for 8–10 hours is recommended for the most accurate iron level results.

Can I test if I’m already on iron supplements?

Yes, but it's ideal to test before your daily dose or after a short pause, unless advised otherwise by a doctor.

How is this different from a basic iron test?

This panel gives a fuller picture — including transport (transferrin), storage (ferritin), and binding capacity — not just circulating iron.

Can this detect hemochromatosis?

It can suggest iron overload, but genetic testing is required for confirmation of hereditary hemochromatosis.
