About this test

This test brings together cholesterol and cardiovascular markers, liver and kidney function, thyroid hormones, the female hormones FSH, LH and oestradiol, iron status, gout risk via uric acid, and vitamins B12, D and folate, alongside a full blood count and the inflammation marker hs-CRP. Checking these together gives a broad annual snapshot of general health rather than investigating a single symptom, covering the areas most often flagged in a standard health check for women.

Within its comparison group of 21 similar 26-to-50-marker health checks, this test sits right at the £159 median price, while covering more markers, 47, than any of the eight named peers we compare it with, including Medichecks' own Advanced Essential Blood Test (43 markers, £135) and Blue Horizon's Comprehensive Bronze Healthscreen (43 markers, £156.25).

The clinical depth score is close to the top of the scale, reflecting the above-median marker count. Value for money sits in the middle of the scale because the price matches the group median rather than beating it. Trust signals score highly on the provider's Trustpilot rating, UKAS ISO 15189 partner labs and included doctor review, and results and follow-up scores well because a doctor reviews the results. Collection convenience is middling, since it needs a clinic visit or a booked nurse visit rather than a home kit.

Who is it for?

This suits women who want a broad annual health check covering heart, liver, kidney, thyroid and hormone markers in one test, rather than testing a single area. If cost matters more than the extra depth, Medichecks' own Essential Blood Test (38 markers, £89) covers much of the same ground for far less. If you want a similarly deep check at a comparable price, Blue Horizon's Comprehensive Bronze Healthscreen (43 markers, £156.25) is the closest alternative, though with four fewer markers.

How it works

The sample is a venous blood draw, taken in-store at a clinic or via a home nurse visit; there's no at-home finger-prick option for this test. Results are reviewed by a doctor and are typically back within 3 days.
