LupiKavach Healthy Women Rose (Women Package Rose) Test

Undergoing a LupiKavach Healthy Women Package - ROSE is important for several reasons:

The LupiKavach Healthy Women Package - ROSE offers the following tests for comprehensive health screening:

Blood sugar-fasting: Measures blood sugar levels after an overnight fast (10-12 hours) to assess blood sugar control.
Hemoglobin (Hb)A1c: Measures average blood glucose over 8-12 weeks, crucial for diagnosing and managing diabetes.
Hemogram (CBC + ESR): Evaluates blood components (RBC, WBC, Hb, platelets, etc.) and inflammation (ESR) to assess overall health.
Lipid profile: Measures cholesterol and triglyceride levels to assess the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack and stroke.
Kidney Function Test (KFT) GOLD: Evaluates kidney health by measuring urea, creatinine, uric acid, protein, and electrolytes, helping to detect conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure.
Liver Function Test (LFT) GOLD: Assesses liver health by measuring enzymes and proteins, useful for diagnosing liver infections, jaundice, and cirrhosis.
Complete Urine Examination: Analyzes urine's physical and chemical properties to diagnose urinary tract infections, kidney diseases, and metabolic disorders.
Thyroid Profile Total: Measures Total T3, Total T4, and TSH to evaluate thyroid function and diagnose thyroid disorders such as hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism.
Vitamin B12: Assesses vitamin B12 levels. Vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to anemia and nervous system issues.
Vitamin D (25 OH): Measures vitamin D levels. Abnormal vitamin D levels affects bone health and can cause fatigue or kidney problems.
Iron Studies: Measures blood iron levels to detect and monitor anemia or iron overload.
Ferritin: Determines the amount of ferritin. When the body contains too little or too much iron, it could indicate a serious medical condition. 
Cancer Antigen (CA) 125: Detects CA 125 protein. Elevated CA 125 levels may indicate ovarian cancer or other underlying conditions.
Calcium: Measures calcium levels in the blood to monitor bone disease and overall calcium status.
Phosphorus: Measures phosphate levels in the blood to check for bone and kidney disease.
C - reactive protein (CRP): Determines the amount of CRP. Normally, blood contains low levels of C - reactive protein. The liver releases more CRP into your bloodstream when the body is inflamed. 
High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP): Detects low CRP levels. It serves to measure inflammation and assess the likelihood of stroke and heart disease.
Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH): Measures FSH levels to diagnose fertility issues and pituitary gland disorders.
Prolactin: Measures the level of the prolactin hormone and abnormal levels of prolactin may indicate menstrual irregularities or infertility. 

Blood sugar-fasting

High fasting glucose levels could indicate diabetes, a disorder of the pancreas, or hyperthyroidism.

Hemoglobin (Hb)A1c

• Elevated HbA1c levels indicates that you have too much sugar in your blood. Long-term elevated sugar levels may lead to diabetes complications such as hypertension, eye disorders, diabetic foot, etc.
• Lower than normal HbA1c levels indicates that you have low sugar levels in your blood. This could indicate inflammation or issues with liver function.

Haemogram (CBC + ESR )

• Abnormal levels of hemoglobin, hematocrit, or RBCs can be signs of anemia, heart disease, or iron deficiency.
• A low white blood cell count might be caused by a bone marrow disorder, an autoimmune disorder, or cancer.
• A high white blood cell count may be because of inflammation, infection, or a reaction to a medication.
• High ESR may be an indication of the conditions that cause inflammation, such as arthritis, kidney diseases, inflammatory bowel disease, infections, heart diseases, and certain cancers.
• Low ESR may be an indication of blood disorders such as polycythemia, sickle cell disease, leukocytosis (a very high WBC in the blood), and certain kidney and liver problems.

Lipid profile

• Having higher-than-normal levels of LDL, total cholesterol, and triglycerides increases your risk of cardiovascular diseases.
• Having lower-than-normal levels of HDL can increase your risk of cardiovascular disease.
• Having abnormally low cholesterol levels is rare. It indicates the presence of an underlying disease that is causing chronic infections, inflammation, or malnourishment.

Kidney Function Test (KFT) GOLD

• Abnormal levels of hemoglobin, RBC count, or hematocrit may be an indication of anemia, heart disease, or iron deficiency.
• A high white blood cell count may be an indication of infection or inflammation in the body.
• The presence of pus cells, RBCs, or WBCs in the urine may be an indication of urinary tract infections.
• Abnormalities in the serum creatinine or proteins in the urine may be an early sign of kidney disease.

Liver Function Test (LFT) GOLD

• An elevated ALT test result can be a sign of liver damage, with very high levels often caused by viral hepatitis or injury from drugs.
• A high level of AST may reflect an underlying issue with the liver or muscles. If AST is elevated without a corresponding increase in ALT, this may suggest heart or muscle-related diseases. Additionally, elevated levels of ALT, bilirubin, and ALP, when observed with AST, may point to liver damage.
• An elevated level of ALP may suggest blocked bile ducts, liver inflammation, or bone disease.
• A low albumin test result may suggest cirrhosis, malnutrition or cancer.
• A high bilirubin test result may indicate liver dysfunction, especially when accompanied by elevated ALT or AST levels, which may suggest cirrhosis or hepatitis.
• A high GGT test result may indicate damage to the liver or bile ducts.
• An elevated level of LD or PT may indicate liver damage.

Complete Urine Examination

• Urine usually contains a variety of chemicals and substances. It is generally clear with a light yellow colour. The pH level should be between 4.5 and 8, indicating its acidity or alkalinity.
• Urine is typically free of protein, glucose, and ketones. Under a microscope, a normal examination will reveal up to 5 red blood cells, 5 white blood cells, and no bacteria. Any results that deviate from these may indicate a specific health issue.

Thyroid Profile Total

• If TSH levels are higher than usual or T3 and T4 levels are lower, it might be a sign of conditions like hypothyroidism, malnutrition, or a severe acute illness.
• If TSH levels are lower than normal or if T3 and T4 levels are higher, it could suggest that the thyroid gland is overactive. This situation may be linked to conditions such as Grave’s disease, toxic nodular goiter, multinodular goiter, too much iodine in the system, or excessive thyroid hormone medication.

Vitamin B12

Below the normal range:

Vitamin B12 levels less than 200 pg/mL are considered low and indicate vitamin B12 deficiency, pernicious anemia, or an overactive thyroid. Neurological symptoms are common in people with low vitamin B12 levels. 

Above the normal range:

A vitamin B12 level of 900 pg/mL or more is considered abnormally high and may indicate liver or kidney problems, diabetes, or some form of leukemia (blood cancer). 

Vitamin D (25 OH)

Vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency means you are:

• Not getting sufficient vitamin D from your diet or exposure to sunlight.
• Having trouble absorbing vitamin D from your food (sign of a malabsorption disorder).
• Having trouble changing vitamin D into a form your body can use (sign of kidney or liver disease).

Higher concentrations of total vitamin D may occur as a result of excessive vitamin D intake, (Hypervitaminosis D). This condition suggests that an individual is obtaining too much vitamin D from supplements. Excessive vitamin D levels can result in severe damage to organs and blood vessels.

Iron studies 

A higher-than-normal level may be a sign of:

• Higher concentrations of iron in the body (hemochromatosis)
• Liver tissue death
• Inflammation of the liver (hepatitis)
• Iron poisoning

A lower-than-normal level may be a sign of:

• Long-term digestive tract bleeding
• Heavy menstrual bleeding
• Intestinal conditions causing poor absorption of iron
• Iron deficiency in the diet
• Anemia
• Inherited blood disorder (thalassemia)

Ferritin

Normal value ranges may slightly differ among different laboratories and some labs use different measurements.

Higher than normal levels of ferritin may be a sign of:

• Excess iron in the body (hemochromatosis)
• Liver disease (alcohol abuse)
• An autoimmune disorder (rheumatoid arthritis)
• Inflammation of the liver (hepatitis)
• Frequent red blood cell transfusions

Lower than normal levels of ferritin may be a sign of:

• Bleeding in the digestive tract
• Heavy menstrual bleeding
• estinal conditions causing poor absorption of iron
• Iron deficiency in diet

CA 125

The normal cortisol range for a blood sample collected in the morning is 5 to 25 mcg/dL, or 140 to 690 nmol/L.

• An elevated level could suggest Cushing disease, adrenal gland tumour overproducing cortisol, stress, or acute illness.
• An abnormally low level could suggest Addison's disease, hypopituitarism, or the suppression of normal adrenal or pituitary function by glucocorticoid medications.
