This panel is a comprehensive suite of tests designed to evaluate various aspects of women's health. Here's how each test contributes to the panel:
1. Bilirubin: Helps assess liver function, where abnormalities may indicate liver disease or conditions such as Gilbert's syndrome.
2. CA 19-9: A tumor marker primarily used to monitor treatment for pancreatic cancer and to check for recurrence.
3. CA 125: A protein that is often elevated in ovarian cancer. It can also be elevated in other conditions, including endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, and during menstruation or pregnancy. Elevated levels of CA 125 can suggest the presence of ovarian cancer, especially in postmenopausal women or those with a family history of the disease.
4. CA 15-3: A marker that can be elevated in breast cancer. It can be helpful in monitoring treatment response and detecting recurrence in women previously diagnosed with the disease.
5. CBC (Complete Blood Count, includes Differential and Platelets): Evaluates overall health and detects a wide range of disorders, including anemia and infection.
6. CEA (Carcinoembryonic Antigen): Used as a tumor marker to help monitor colorectal cancer.
7. Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP): Provides a broad look at metabolic function and checks for liver and kidney health, electrolyte and acid/base balance, and blood glucose levels.
8. Copper: Assesses copper levels in red blood cells, which can impact various enzymes and immune function.
9. D-Dimer: Helps rule out clotting disorders and is often used to check for conditions like deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
10. Estradiol: An estrogen hormone whose levels are measured to evaluate testicular function and balance of sex hormones.
11. Ferritin: Reflects the body's iron stores and is used to diagnose anemia or iron overload.
12. Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH): This test measures the level of FSH in the blood. FSH is vital for the growth and maturation of ovarian follicles. Elevated levels can indicate a reduced ovarian reserve, potentially impacting fertility.
13. Gamma Glutamyl Transferase (GGT): Used to assess liver health and can indicate bile duct problems.
14. Iron and Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC): Measures how much iron is in the blood and how well the iron binds to transferrin, which can affect immune and metabolic function.
15. Lactate Dehydrogenase (LD): An enzyme that, when elevated, can indicate tissue damage.
16. Lipid Panel: Assesses the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases.
17. Lipoprotein (A): A genetic variant of LDL cholesterol that can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.
18. Luteinizing Hormone (LH): LH levels are crucial for triggering ovulation. This test helps determine if and when ovulation is occurring by measuring the surge in LH levels, providing insights into the ovulation cycle and timing.
19. Progesterone: A hormone that can affect the immune system and is measured to assess adrenal and gonadal function.
20. Prolactin: Elevated prolactin levels can interfere with ovulation, making it difficult to conceive. This test measures prolactin to identify abnormalities that may need to be addressed to restore fertility.
21. Transferrin: A protein that transports iron throughout the body, important for diagnosing anemia or chronic inflammation.
22. Uric Acid: Elevated levels can indicate gout or kidney disease.
Each test in this panel provides crucial information about different aspects of a woman's health, from hormone levels and metabolic processes to immune response and cancer markers. This comprehensive assessment is pivotal in early detection, prevention, and management of a wide range of health concerns.
