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.

Hemoglobin Electrophoresis
Haemoglobin is in the red blood cells and, according to the NVKC, carries oxygen from the lungs to the organs.
Hepatitis B Core Antibody
According to the RIVM, the hepatitis B virus has a core surrounded by the hepatitis B core antigen, and after an infection the formation of antibodies against it starts: anti-HBc.
Hepatitis B Surface Antigen
A Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg) test detects the presence of HBsAg in your blood, which is one of the earliest indicators of a hepatitis B infection.
Hepatitis C Antibody
A Hepatitis C Antibody (anti-HCV) test detects antibodies produced by the immune system in response to the hepatitis C virus.
Herb Pollen Panel (wx3)
The Herb Pollen Panel (wx3) screens for weed pollen sensitisation.
Histamine
A histamine blood test shows how much histamine is in your blood. Histamine is the substance your body releases during an allergic reaction, mainly from mast cells and basophils.
Holotranscobalamin
Holotranscobalamin measures the earliest marker of B12 depletion. For women, early detection may be particularly valuable as B12 status can influence hormonal health, energy levels, and reproductive wellbeing.
Homocysteine
Homocysteine levels can be influenced by folate and B-vitamin status, which are especially important during pregnancy. Monitoring supports cardiovascular and reproductive health for women.
IGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor)
IGF-1 plays an important role in women's health, supporting bone density, tissue repair, and hormonal balance. Monitoring this growth factor can provide valuable insight into your overall well-being.
IGF-BP3
IGF-BP3 is the main transport protein for IGF-1 and plays a role in bone health and tissue maintenance.
INR
INR (International Normalized Ratio) standardises prothrombin time results across laboratories, making it the universal measurement for monitoring oral anticoagulant therapy (warfarin) and assessing the extrinsic clotting pathway.
Immunoglobulin IgA
IgA testing evaluates mucosal immunity and validates coeliac screening results. For women, IgA deficiency is associated with higher rates of autoimmune conditions.
Immunoglobulin IgG
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is an antibody that, according to the NVKC, B cells, a kind of white blood cell, make to fight infections.
Immunoglobulin IgM
Immunoglobulin M (IgM) is the first antibody your immune system produces when encountering a new infection.
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.
Inhibin B
Inhibin B is produced by developing ovarian follicles and may reflect your ovarian reserve and reproductive potential. This marker is particularly valuable for women exploring fertility or monitoring hormonal health.
Insulin (Fasting)
Fasting insulin can reveal insulin resistance, which is closely linked to PCOS and hormonal imbalance in women. Early detection supports targeted lifestyle interventions.
Interleukin-6 (IL-6)
According to a 2014 review, interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a soluble messenger substance that affects inflammation, immune reactions and the production of blood cells.
Intrinsic Factor Antibodies
Intrinsic Factor Antibodies tests for autoimmune-related B12 malabsorption.
Iodine
Iodine is vital for thyroid health and becomes especially important during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Monitoring supports healthy hormone production throughout your reproductive years.
Iron (Serum)
Iron is needed to make haemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen.
Irregular Antibody Screening
According to the NVKC, irregular antibodies are antibodies against red blood cells that are normally not in the blood.
LDH (Lactate Dehydrogenase)
LDH is an enzyme, a protein that speeds up the conversion of lactate in cells.
LDL Cholesterol
According to the NVKC, the body uses cholesterol to build tissues and to make certain hormones and bile acids, and partly makes it itself in the liver.
