Kidney panel priced right at the market median
Checks key markers of kidney function, including urea, creatinine and electrolytes, from a blood sample taken at a clinic or during a home nurse visit.
Basic liver panel priced at the category average
A blood test that checks core liver proteins, including bilirubin, total protein and the liver enzymes ALT and AST, to give an overview of liver health. Useful if you have possible liver symptoms or drink heavily.
More infections than most peers, at a premium price
A 7-infection STI panel combining a blood draw and urine sample, covering HIV, syphilis, hepatitis B, chlamydia, gonorrhoea, mycoplasma and ureaplasma. Marketed by Better2Know for gay and bisexual men, though the site lists it as suitable for anyone.
Narrow immunity check, priced high for 3 markers
A blood test that checks for existing antibodies to measles, mumps and rubella, useful if you are unsure of your vaccination history or need proof of immunity for work, travel or pregnancy planning.
Six-marker male hormone panel, priciest of its peers
A nurse-collected blood test covering six male hormone markers, including testosterone, free androgen index, LH, FSH and prolactin. Suited to men with symptoms such as low sex drive, fatigue or hair loss.
Deepest panel in its group, priced far above every peer
A 25-marker blood check for people recovering from Covid-19, combining a Covid-19 antibody test with liver, kidney, bone, blood salt and general wellness markers. Suits anyone wanting the widest single-panel post-Covid check available in this range.
Single-marker kidney function check
This blood test measures blood urea nitrogen (BUN), a waste product used as an indicator of kidney function. It suits people who want a specific check on kidney health rather than a broader panel.
Middle-of-the-range syphilis test in Better2Know's lineup
This blood test checks for syphilis using the VDRL method, which looks for antibodies your immune system produces in response to the infection. It suits people who want a laboratory blood test via a clinic or nurse visit.
Instant clinic result, priced above the group median
An instant swab test giving Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea results at the clinic in under 30 minutes, for anyone who wants a same-visit answer instead of a lab-based test.
Clinic cholesterol panel; the home version costs £80 less
A cholesterol and lipid panel measuring HDL, LDL, non-HDL cholesterol and triglycerides from a venous blood sample, used to assess cardiovascular risk factors.
Priciest testosterone test in its comparison group
A clinic blood test that checks testosterone levels, for men who want their sample taken by a professional rather than a home finger-prick kit.
Cheaper than Better2Know's own home kit, still costly
This is a clinic-based blood test measuring progesterone, typically used around day 21 of the cycle to check for ovulation. It suits people investigating fertility issues or irregular periods who prefer a clinic visit.
