What is the Well Woman Profile (minus FBC)?

The Well Woman Profile (minus FBC) is an advanced women’s health screening blood test designed to provide a detailed overview of key physiological systems while excluding the Full Blood Count. It assesses kidney and liver function, cardiovascular and metabolic risk, inflammation, iron status, essential vitamins, thyroid health, and female reproductive hormones.

This version is ideal for women who already have recent FBC results or do not require repeat blood counts but still want a thorough biochemical and hormonal assessment. Results are reviewed together to identify patterns and underlying contributors to symptoms or future risk.

Why do I need a Well Woman Profile (minus FBC)?

Many health issues affecting women—such as hormonal imbalance, iron deficiency, thyroid dysfunction, insulin resistance, or chronic inflammation—can develop silently. Excluding FBC does not limit the ability to assess these risks when the focus is on biochemistry, hormones, and inflammation.

This profile is particularly useful for preventative screening, ongoing monitoring, or investigating symptoms where blood counts are already known.

You may benefit from this test if you experience:

• Persistent fatigue or low energy
• Irregular periods or hormonal symptoms
• PMS, perimenopausal or menopausal changes
• Weight gain or metabolic concerns
• Brain fog or mood changes
• Muscle aches or slow recovery
• Family history of heart disease or diabetes
• Desire for a comprehensive check without repeating FBC

Benefits of the Well Woman Profile (minus FBC)

1. Comprehensive women’s health overview
   Covers hormones, organs, metabolism, and inflammation without repeating blood counts.
2. Early detection of hormonal imbalance
   Supports assessment of menstrual, fertility, and menopausal health.
3. Supports cardiovascular risk assessment
   Includes detailed cholesterol and inflammatory markers.
4. Investigates fatigue and low energy
   Assesses iron status, vitamins, thyroid hormones, and inflammation.
5. Monitors metabolic and diabetes risk
   HbA1c provides long-term blood sugar insight.
6. Supports kidney, liver, and muscle health
   Useful for long-term wellbeing and physical performance.
7. Supports bone and mineral balance
   Calcium and vitamin D contribute to skeletal health assessment.
8. Ideal for ongoing monitoring
   Suitable when FBC results are already available elsewhere.

Your results explained

Low or sub-optimal results

Low or borderline values may indicate nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalance, reduced organ function, or chronic inflammation. These findings often explain symptoms such as fatigue, mood changes, or cycle irregularities.

Typical UK interpretation:

• Results below laboratory reference ranges
• May prompt lifestyle changes or further testing

Normal results

Normal results suggest balanced hormones, healthy organ function, stable metabolism, and lower long-term health risk.

Typical UK interpretation:

• Results within laboratory reference ranges
• Routine monitoring may be advised

High or abnormal results

Elevated values may indicate inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, cardiovascular risk, hormonal imbalance, or organ strain. Results are interpreted together to determine clinical relevance.

Typical UK interpretation:

• Results above reference ranges
• May require follow-up testing or specialist referral
