About this test

This panel covers cholesterol, iron status, kidney and liver function, thyroid (TSH), and vitamin B12 and D, aimed at women wanting a general check on energy, metabolism and nutrition rather than a specific condition. It does not include reproductive hormones such as oestradiol or FSH, so it is a general wellness panel rather than a hormone-focused one.

Clinical depth scores low relative to the other women's health tests we track, since 16 markers places it at the bottom of that group, even though it is broader than a single-marker test. There is not yet a directly comparable women's health test in our data at a similar price point, so the value-for-money score reflects the price on its own rather than a head-to-head comparison.

Where this test does well is convenience: it is one of the few in our data that can be done entirely at home with a finger-prick kit, with a venous or in-clinic option available too, and results back in around 3 days. Trust and results scores are also strong, reflecting Medichecks' Trustpilot rating, lab accreditation and the doctor's comment included with every result.

Who is it for?

This suits a woman who wants a convenient, at-home check on general health markers such as cholesterol, iron, thyroid and key vitamins, without needing a clinic visit. If you specifically want reproductive hormones such as oestradiol or FSH included, or a deeper panel overall, look for a women's health test that lists those markers, since this one does not cover them.

How it works

This is a blood test using a finger-prick sample that you can take at home, or you can choose an in-store clinic visit, a home nurse visit, or a venous draw at a clinic. Once your sample reaches the lab, results are typically back within 3 days, and a doctor reviews and comments on your result as standard.

Our editorial score

Compare Health Test Score Broad at-home panel, but light on markers for its category
Editorial confidence: 10.0/10

This 16-marker at-home blood test for women covers cholesterol, iron, kidney and liver function, thyroid and key vitamins, and can be done entirely with a finger-prick kit. At £99, there are no comparable women's health tests in our data yet to benchmark the price against, and although 16 markers sounds broad, it places at the lower end for clinical depth among the women's health tests we track. Results are back in around 3 days with a doctor's comment included.
