This list isn't curated by us. It's whatever our customers actually order most, and the pattern behind it is worth explaining.

What People Actually Book

A small group of broad, cheap tests covers most of what's likely to turn up. A blood count screens for anaemia and infection for the price of a coffee. Thyroid catches something common and very treatable. Vitamin D and B12 cover the two deficiencies half the country walks around with.

Diabetes testing covers a condition an enormous share of Indian adults have or are heading toward. Liver and kidney panels check two organs that fail quietly. Between them you get a lot of ground covered for very little money, which is exactly why they top the list.

Who Should Consider These Tests

• You've no idea where to start and want the basics
• You want a broad check without buying a full package
• You're booking a first test for a parent
• You want to compare against last year
• Your doctor asked for routine bloodwork
• You want an affordable annual screen

What Each Test Tells You

This page lists 10 options. Here's what each one actually measures, so you can pick instead of guessing.

Blood tests

• Diabetes Testing (FBS + PLBS): Sugar before food and two hours after. The second number is the interesting one, because that's where trouble shows up first.
• Complete Blood Picture (CBP): Counts your red cells, white cells and platelets. It's the cheapest way to catch anaemia or an infection you didn't know you had, and it's the single most booked test we do.
• CRP test: Tells you there's inflammation somewhere. It won't tell you where, but it answers whether something's actually going on.
• Liver Function Test (LFT): Your liver handles everything you eat, drink and swallow. It puts up with a lot before it complains, so this picks up fatty liver or alcohol strain years before you'd feel anything.
• Thyroid Function Tests: Checks the hormones that set how fast your body runs. Worth doing if you're tired, gaining or losing weight without trying, or your hair's thinning.
• Renal Function Test (RFT): Kidneys can lose a big chunk of function before you notice a thing, and what's gone doesn't come back. If you're diabetic or have high BP, this isn't optional.
• Vitamin B12 Test: Your nerves and red blood cells need B12. If you're vegetarian, you're at real risk, and the symptoms are easy to miss: tingling hands, fuzzy thinking, no energy.
• Vitamin D (25 - Hydroxy Vitamin D, Serum): Your body makes this from sunlight, and most people who work indoors don't get enough. Low levels show up as aching bones, weak muscles and flat mood.

Scans

• Abdominal Ultrasound: Painless look at your liver, gallbladder, kidneys and pancreas. No radiation, and it takes about fifteen minutes.
• 2D Echo: An ultrasound of your heart, beating, live on screen. Shows how strongly it pumps and whether the valves are doing their job. No radiation.

How to Prepare

• No fasting: CRP test, Complete Blood Picture (CBP), Vitamin D (25 - Hydroxy Vitamin D, Serum)
• Nothing to do beforehand: 2D Echo
• Usually 6 to 8 hours fasting. Some scans want a full bladder: Abdominal Ultrasound
• 8 to 12 hours fasting for the first sample: Diabetes Testing (FBS + PLBS)
• Skip alcohol for 24 hours first: Liver Function Test (LFT)
• Go easy on protein and hard exercise the day before: Renal Function Test (RFT)
• No fasting. Take your thyroid tablet after the sample, not before: Thyroid Function Tests
• No fasting. Ask your doctor before pausing supplements: Vitamin B12 Test

Tell the collection team everything you're taking, prescription or not. Plenty of supplements move these numbers, and without that context your report reads wrong.

How Often to Repeat

Once a year for most of this. More often for sugar and kidney markers if either has been high before.

Understanding Your Results

You can book these without a prescription, but read them with a doctor who knows your history. The same number outside the range means very different things depending on who you are.

These tests point at a diagnosis. They don't make one. Read your report with a doctor who knows your history and what you're currently taking.
