The Prolactin Serum Test measures the level of prolactin hormone in the blood, assessing pituitary gland function and hormonal balance.

It is used to diagnose pituitary disorders, investigate unexplained symptoms, evaluate hormonal imbalances, and monitor treatment for related conditions.

Fasting is not required, but avoid a large meal before the test. Inform your healthcare provider about any medications or supplements.

Results are typically available within 1 to 3 days after the test.

It can help diagnose conditions such as prolactinomas, hormonal imbalances, hypothyroidism, and other endocrine disorders affecting prolactin levels.

High CPK levels can indicate muscle or tissue damage, such as from a heart attack, muscle disease, or brain injury.

No, fasting is generally not required for the CPK Total Test.

Intense exercise or physical activity shortly before the test may temporarily elevate CPK levels.

The frequency of testing depends on the condition being monitored and your healthcare provider’s recommendations.

Abnormal CPK Total Test results may require further evaluation to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment.

The Anti-Cardiolipin Antibody Test detects antibodies against cardiolipin, aiding in the diagnosis of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) and evaluating the risk of blood clots.

A blood sample is collected from your arm and analyzed for the presence of anti-cardiolipin antibodies.

No special preparation or fasting is required. You can eat and drink normally before the test.

Results are typically available within 1-2 days, depending on the laboratory’s processing time.

Discuss any abnormal results with your healthcare provider for guidance on further tests or treatment options based on your specific condition.
