Folic Acid Test

Results provided in 5-7 working days.

This test measures your blood levels of Vitamin 9 (folate).

Your test results will show whether your Vitamin B9 (folate/folic acid) levels are within a normal range. Vitamin B9 is important for making and repairing DNA, for normal red blood cell development, and for fetal development especially during the first trimester, so having healthy levels of this vitamin is crucial at all stages of life.

Evaluating the levels of Vitamin B9 in your body will help determine if you are at risk of a deficiency that could result in a number of uncomfortable symptoms, both physical and mental.

Mental

• Irritability
• Difficulty concentrating

Physical

• Fatigue
• Lethargy
• A swollen tongue

Home testing allows you to book, test, review, and react all from the safety of your home. Whether you’re after privacy, autonomy or convenience, home testing caters for you.
