Allergy & Intolerance
20 markers in this category
Anti-TTG (Tissue Transglutaminase)
Anti-TTG is a key screening marker for coeliac disease, which affects women more frequently than men. Coeliac disease can contribute to iron-deficiency anaemia, fertility issues, and osteoporosis — making early detection particularly important for women's health.
DAO (Diamine Oxidase)
DAO activity can be influenced by hormonal fluctuations, and some women notice that histamine-related symptoms worsen around menstruation or during perimenopause. Testing DAO helps clarify whether histamine intolerance may be contributing to cyclical symptoms.
Endomysium IgA
Endomysium IgA is a highly specific confirmatory test for coeliac disease. For women, undiagnosed coeliac disease can contribute to iron deficiency, fertility challenges, and bone loss — making accurate diagnosis particularly important.
Food Allergy Panel
The Food Allergy Panel provides comprehensive IgE screening for common food allergens. Hormonal changes during the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, or menopause can influence immune reactivity, potentially affecting food allergy symptoms in women.
Food Mix Panel (fx77)
The Food Mix Panel (fx77) screens for IgE-mediated food sensitisation in a single test. For women, understanding food allergies is important during pregnancy planning, as some allergies may influence dietary needs and nutritional planning.
Food Screening Panel (fx5)
The Food Screening Panel (fx5) provides quick screening for six major food allergens. For women planning pregnancy or breastfeeding, identifying food allergies helps ensure safe maternal nutrition.
Gliadin IgA
Gliadin IgA is part of coeliac disease screening. For women, undiagnosed coeliac disease may contribute to iron deficiency, recurrent miscarriage, and reduced bone density — making early detection valuable.
Grass Pollen Panel (gx3)
The Grass Pollen Panel (gx3) helps identify grass pollen allergy. For women, hormonal fluctuations can influence the severity of allergic symptoms, and allergy management is particularly important during pregnancy.
Herb Pollen Panel (wx3)
The Herb Pollen Panel (wx3) screens for weed pollen sensitisation. Hormonal changes can influence allergy severity, and managing pollen allergy is important for women during pregnancy when medication options may be limited.
Histamine
Histamine blood testing measures mast cell activity. Oestrogen can influence histamine release, and some women experience worsened allergic symptoms premenstrually or during perimenopause, making histamine testing particularly relevant.
Inhalation Allergy Panel
The Inhalation Allergy Panel identifies airborne allergen sensitivities. For women, managing allergies is especially important during pregnancy when treatment options may be limited.
Lactase Genotyping
Lactase Genotyping determines your genetic ability to digest lactose. For women, understanding lactose tolerance is important for calcium intake planning during pregnancy and for bone health.
Leptin
Leptin testing measures the appetite-regulating hormone. For women, leptin interacts with reproductive hormones and may be relevant to menstrual regularity, fertility, and weight management.
Mold Panel (mx1)
The Mold Panel (mx1) identifies mould sensitisation. For women, mould allergy management is important during pregnancy when respiratory health impacts maternal wellbeing.
Nut Panel (fx1)
The Nut Panel (fx1) screens for nut and peanut sensitisation. For women, knowing nut allergy status is important for pregnancy nutrition and family meal planning.
Nut Panel 2 (fx22)
The Nut Panel 2 (fx22) provides extended tree nut screening. For women, comprehensive allergy identification supports safe nutrition during pregnancy.
Total IgA
Total IgA measures mucosal immune defence and validates coeliac tests. Women are more likely to have autoimmune conditions associated with IgA abnormalities.
Tree Pollen Panel (tx9)
The Tree Pollen Panel (tx9) screens for spring pollen allergies. For women, allergy management during pregnancy requires careful medication choices.
Tryptase
Tryptase measures mast cell activity. For women with severe allergy history, a baseline is important especially when planning pregnancy.
Zonulin
Zonulin provides insight into gut barrier health. For women, gut permeability may be influenced by hormonal fluctuations and is linked to autoimmune conditions affecting women disproportionately.
