About this test
Worried about iron overload? If you're experiencing fatigue, joint pain, or unexplained symptoms, this test can check for haemochromatosis-an inherited condition where excess iron builds up in the body. Too much iron can damage organs over time, so early detection is key. This test is ideal if you've got a family history of haemochromatosis or symptoms linked to high iron levels.
