About this test

This panel brings together markers for cholesterol and cardiovascular risk (including an advanced lipid profile with apolipoproteins), liver health (ALT, ALP, Gamma GT, bilirubin), kidney function (creatinine, eGFR), thyroid (TSH), diabetes risk (HbA1c), iron status, general protein levels (albumin, globulin, total protein), and CRP as a marker of inflammation. The provider's own description also lists active vitamin B12 among the markers covered, together with an added Ca125 marker, which is commonly used to assess ovarian health. Covering this many systems in one panel is more about a broad baseline than an in-depth look at any single condition.

Among the 32 tests in its comparison group, the median size is 18 markers, so this panel's 20 markers put it slightly above average for depth. On price, £82.25 sits well below the £113 group median: YorkTest's 18-marker Essential Health Check costs £55, Randox Health's 23-marker Quickdraw test is £84, and Blue Horizon's own Fingerprick Wellman, the equivalent panel for men, is priced identically at £82.25 for the same 20 markers. Collection is flexible, with finger-prick at home, a venous draw at a clinic, or a nurse home visit all offered, and results back within one working day.

The listing's description is fairly brief given the size of the panel, which is reflected in a middling score for clarity even though the collection options and sample type are clearly stated. Trust signals reflect Blue Horizon Medicals' Trustpilot score of 4.2 from 395 reviews, its use of UKAS ISO 15189 partner labs, and a trading history back to 2009. Results are reviewed by a doctor, though this commentary is typically something you add at checkout rather than a feature built into every order by default.

Who is it for?

This suits women who want a broad baseline health check across cholesterol, liver, kidney, thyroid, diabetes and iron in one order, plus an added Ca125 marker, without paying for a larger executive-style panel. It is a reasonable middle ground if YorkTest's 18-marker check at £55 feels too basic but Randox's 23-marker test at £84 feels like more than you need.

If you specifically want the largest panel available in this group, Randox Health's General Health Quickdraw Test covers 23 markers for £84, only a little more than this test. If a symptom or health concern is prompting you to test, see your GP first rather than relying on a general panel alone.

How it works

You can give a sample by finger-prick at home, by having a venous draw at a clinic, or through a nurse home visit; select your preferred option at checkout. Once your sample reaches the lab, it is processed for the full marker panel and the results are reviewed by a doctor, with a turnaround of one working day.

Pros & cons

Pros

  • Covers 20 markers across cholesterol, liver, kidney, thyroid, diabetes and iron in one order.
  • Undercuts the £113 comparison-group median despite above-average depth.
  • Adds a Ca125 marker for ovarian health, not included in every panel this size.
  • Choice of finger-prick at home, clinic visit or a nurse home visit.

Cons

  • Provider's description is brief for a panel this size and does not describe the results report.
  • Randox Health's Quickdraw test offers three more markers for just £1.75 more.
  • Doctor commentary costs extra at checkout rather than being included by default.

Our editorial score

Compare Health Test Score Broad women's health panel priced below its group median
Editorial confidence: 10.0/10

This 20-marker panel for women checks cholesterol, liver, kidney, thyroid, diabetes and iron status, with an added Ca125 marker. At £82.25 it undercuts the £113 median for its comparison group while covering more ground than most panels near that price, such as YorkTest's 18-marker check at £55 or Randox's 23-marker test at £84. The main caveat is that doctor commentary on your results is typically an optional extra rather than included by default.
