Blood values in women
Your blood values say something about your hormones and your health. For hormones the normal range depends on your cycle and your life stage. Look up a value below. Each one shows which range applies and what a deviation can mean.

17-OH Progesterone
17-OH-progesterone is a substance in the adrenal gland that serves as an intermediate product in the making of cortisol; the enzyme 21-hydroxylase converts it into 11-deoxycortisol.
ACTH (Adrenocorticotropic Hormone)
ACTH is a hormone from the pituitary gland that tells your adrenal glands to produce cortisol.
AFP (Alpha-Fetoprotein)
An AFP (Alpha-Fetoprotein) blood test measures the level of alpha-fetoprotein in your blood.
ALP (Alkaline Phosphatase)
Alkaline phosphatase is an enzyme that according to the Cleveland Clinic exists in the liver, bile ducts, bones, kidneys and intestines, and during pregnancy also in the placenta.
ALT (Alanine Aminotransferase)
Alanine aminotransferase, ALT for short, is an enzyme that according to the NVKC helps cells convert one substance into another.
AMA (Anti-Mitochondrial Antibodies)
AMA testing is particularly relevant for women, as PBC affects women approximately 10 times more often than men. Early detection enables treatment that significantly slows progression.
AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone)
In the ovaries of women after puberty, anti-Müllerian hormone, AMH for short, is important for the growth and maturation of the egg sacs, in which eggs mature, according to the NVKC.
ANA (Antinuclear Antibodies)
According to MedlinePlus, antinuclear antibodies are proteins made by the immune system that attack healthy cells instead of foreign substances such as viruses and bacteria; they are called that because they target the cell nucleus, which sends the signals needed for important cell functions.
ANCA Screening
ANCA screening helps identify vasculitis conditions that can affect women of all ages. Early detection enables prompt treatment and organ preservation.
AST (Aspartate Aminotransferase)
AST is an enzyme, a protein that helps cells convert one substance into another, and it sits mainly in the liver and in heart and skeletal muscle.
ASTO (Antistreptolysin O)
ASO testing helps detect streptococcal infections that can trigger inflammatory complications. Monitoring supports comprehensive immune health awareness for women.
Active Vitamin B12
Active Vitamin B12 measures the bioavailable form of B12 available to your cells. For women, B12 may play a role in hormonal balance, energy production, and reproductive health.
Albumin
Albumin reflects liver health and nutritional status, both important for women during pregnancy and hormonal transitions. Monitoring supports comprehensive well-being.
Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio (ACR)
During pregnancy your kidneys work harder and albumin in the urine is followed closely, not least when blood pressure is raised.
Amylase
Amylase is an enzyme, meaning a protein that makes a chemical reaction in the body run faster, and according to the NVKC it helps digest sugars from food.
Androstenedione
Androstenedione is a hormone your body uses to produce both estrogen and testosterone.
Anti ds-DNA + ss-DNA
Anti ds-DNA is crucial for women, as SLE affects women approximately 9 times more often than men, particularly during reproductive years. It helps diagnose and monitor disease activity.
Anti-CCP
Anti-CCP antibodies are aimed, according to the NVKC, at the body's own proteins rich in citrulline, and the immune system makes them in rheumatoid arthritis.
Anti-Cardiolipin IgG
Anti-cardiolipin IgG is crucial for women with recurrent pregnancy loss or unexplained thrombosis. APS is a treatable cause of pregnancy complications when identified early.
Anti-Cardiolipin IgM
Anti-cardiolipin IgM, together with IgG testing, provides comprehensive APS screening for women with pregnancy complications or unexplained thrombosis.
Anti-TTG (Tissue Transglutaminase)
According to Thuisarts, in coeliac disease the immune system attacks healthy gut cells, and according to the NVKC it makes antibodies against tissue transglutaminase, a protein in the gut wall: anti-tTG.
ApoA1 (Apolipoprotein A1)
ApoA1 reflects your HDL's protective capacity against heart disease. Cardiovascular risk increases after menopause, making this marker especially relevant for women.
ApoB (Apolipoprotein B)
ApoB provides a precise measure of cardiovascular risk that goes beyond standard cholesterol. Heart disease risk increases after menopause, making ApoB an important marker for women.
Autoimmune Hepatitis Panel
The Autoimmune Hepatitis Panel is relevant for women, as AIH has a female predominance. Comprehensive antibody profiling enables accurate classification and treatment.
