HBA1C
Our at-home HBA1C test can provide insights into your blood sugar levels over a 2-3 month period and help identify if you have diabetes, or need additional support to control blood sugars. This is via a simple finger-prick collection, with online results available in 2 to 4 days from the time your sample is received at our lab.
What's tested?
- Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) - glucose in your blood binds to haemoglobin in red blood cells forming haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). Because red blood cells live for around 3 months, HbA1c levels reflect the average level of glucose in your blood during that time. Increased HbA1c levels are seen in people who are at increased risk of diabetes or those who are living with diabetes.
Testosterone
Our at-home testosterone test can tell you whether testosterone levels may be causing symptoms including loss of sex drive, lethargy or muscle loss. Testing can support you if you are trying to increase your testosterone levels naturally through exercise and diet. Tracking your testosterone levels over time can help you discover whether your testosterone levels are decreasing with age. If you are taking testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), this test can tell you whether your testosterone levels remain in the normal range.
