Cardiovascular
16 markers in this category
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.
CK-MB
CK-MB is a heart-specific enzyme marker that helps detect cardiac injury. Awareness of cardiac health markers supports comprehensive well-being for women.
Cholesterol/HDL Ratio
The cholesterol/HDL ratio is your total cholesterol divided by your HDL. A lower ratio points to a more favourable profile and a lower cardiovascular risk. Learn what your value can mean.
HDL Cholesterol
HDL cholesterol helps protect your arteries from plaque build-up. Women naturally have higher HDL, but levels may decline after menopause, increasing heart disease risk.
LDL Cholesterol
LDL cholesterol drives plaque build-up in arteries. Women's cardiovascular risk increases after menopause, making regular LDL monitoring an important part of heart health.
LDL/HDL Ratio
The LDL/HDL ratio is your LDL cholesterol divided by your HDL. A lower ratio is more favourable. Learn what your value can mean.
Lipoprotein(a)
Lp(a), in full lipoprotein(a) and often written simply as lp(a), is an LDL-like particle with an extra protein bolted onto it. How much you carry is inherited: over 90 percent of the level is written into your DNA. A diet, exercise or ten kilos less barely shift it. That makes Lp(a) an odd one out on a women's panel: not a hormone value, and no cycle day on which to draw it. That is what makes the test so useful for women. Cardiovascular disease is recognised later and investigated less often in women. A raised Lp(a) is frequently the missing explanation when the cholesterol panel looks tidy while early heart attacks run in the family. You measure it once, and then you know.
NT-proBNP
NT-proBNP measures cardiac stress and helps detect heart failure. Heart disease is a leading concern for women, making cardiac screening an important part of health monitoring.
Non-HDL Cholesterol
Non-HDL cholesterol is your total cholesterol minus your HDL. It captures all the unfavourable cholesterol types together and is a reliable cardiovascular risk marker. Learn what your value can mean.
Omega 3 + 6
The omega-3/omega-6 ratio affects inflammation levels, which can influence hormonal balance, menstrual comfort, and cardiovascular health for women.
Omega-3 Index
The Omega-3 Index reflects your long-term omega-3 status, which may support cardiovascular protection, mood balance, and healthy pregnancy outcomes.
Oxidized LDL
oxLDL measures the most harmful form of cholesterol. Monitoring supports advanced cardiovascular protection for women, especially after menopause.
Total Cholesterol
Total cholesterol provides an overview of your lipid health. Women's cholesterol levels often change with menopause, making regular screening important.
Triglycerides
Triglycerides can be influenced by hormonal factors and may change during menopause. Monitoring supports metabolic and cardiovascular health awareness for women.
Troponin T (Cardiac)
Troponin T is the most sensitive marker for heart muscle damage. Heart disease is a leading health concern for women, making cardiac marker awareness important.
