The Female Hair Loss Profile is a multi-marker blood test panel used to investigate internal causes of hair loss in women. Female hair thinning and excessive shedding are often linked to underlying nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalance, thyroid dysfunction or systemic health issues.
Rather than focusing on a single cause, this profile evaluates iron levels, thyroid hormones, reproductive hormones, vitamins, blood count markers and organ function. This allows a more accurate and clinically useful assessment of why hair loss is occurring.
The test is suitable for women experiencing gradual thinning, increased shedding, loss of hair density or changes in hair quality.
This profile includes ONLY the following 31 biomarkers:
Iron Status
Thyroid Function
Reproductive Hormones
Vitamins & Minerals
Full Blood Count & Red Cell Indices
Liver Function & Proteins
Kidney Function

Where possible, attend your blood test between 7am and 12pm. Please wait until any short-term illness or infection has fully resolved before testing. Avoid intense exercise for 24–48 hours beforehand, as this can affect certain markers.
Fasting is not always required, but some tests may recommend it. If fasting is advised, avoid food for 8–12 hours before your appointment and drink water only. Stay well hydrated, as this helps with sample collection and accuracy.
Continue prescribed medications unless advised otherwise by your clinician. Avoid vitamin, mineral, or biotin supplements for at least 24–48 hours before your test, as these can interfere with results. If you are unsure about any medication or supplement, please let us know before your appointment.
For hormone-related tests, timing within your menstrual cycle may be important. If relevant, follow any specific guidance provided on your test page.
If you have any questions or special circumstances, our team is happy to advise before your appointment.
