Below is the complete range of private blood tests available in Leighton

General Health, Screening and Full Blood Count

General health profiles assess blood cells, oxygen transport, immune
activity and signs of infection or inflammation. They are useful for
investigating tiredness, dizziness, frequent illness or reduced
performance. Many residents in Leighton Buzzard select these tests for
routine monitoring or reassurance.

Heart and Cholesterol Health

A cholesterol test measures HDL, LDL and triglycerides to assess
cardiovascular risk. This test is especially relevant where activity
levels are lower, work involves extended sitting, or family history
suggests increased heart risk. Early awareness supports preventive
planning.

Diabetes and Blood Sugar Regulation

The HbA1c test evaluates average blood sugar levels over time. It helps
detect early metabolic imbalance before symptoms become severe.
Individuals across Bedfordshire often request this test when
experiencing tiredness, thirst, appetite change or weight variation.

Kidney Function Testing

Kidney function testing measures filtration and waste removal markers.
It is valuable for individuals managing blood pressure, hydration
changes or long-term medication use. Early insight can support
protective adjustments to lifestyle or care planning.

Liver Function Testing

Liver testing evaluates enzyme levels and protein production related to
metabolic processing and detoxification. Testing is useful when
monitoring the effects of alcohol intake, medications or general changes
in wellbeing.

Thyroid and Metabolic Balance

Thyroid tests measure TSH, T4 and related hormones that influence
metabolic speed, energy and mood. Subtle thyroid imbalance may develop
slowly, which makes laboratory testing important when symptoms are vague
or progressive.

Male Hormone Testing

Male Hormone Blood Test / Testosterone Blood Test / Male Weight Control
Blood Test
These tests assess hormone balance influencing strength, motivation,
metabolic rate and muscle composition. They are often used when reduced
drive, lower physical strength or changes in body composition develop
gradually.

Female Hormone Testing

Female Hormone Blood Test / Female Weight Control Blood Test / Female
Fertility Blood Test / Menopause Blood Test
These tests help clarify menstrual variation, fertility planning,
menopausal transition and mood or temperature changes. They provide
structured understanding during phases where symptoms may otherwise seem
uncertain.

Pregnancy Blood Test (hCG)

The pregnancy blood test provides early and accurate confirmation of
pregnancy. It is also used for measuring hormone progression in early
stages where reassurance is needed.

Blood Grouping

The Blood Grouping Blood Test identifies ABO and Rh blood type. This is
relevant for pregnancy planning, emergency preparation, or personal
medical records.

Digestive and Food-Related Testing

Coeliac Test / Food Intolerance Test / Dairy Intolerance Test / Nut
Intolerance Test / Shellfish Intolerance Test
These tests support identification of foods contributing to bloating,
skin changes or digestive discomfort. Results help reduce guesswork and
guide targeted adjustments.

It is selected when ongoing fatigue, joint discomfort or neurological
symptoms may follow tick exposure.
