Iron Test
R299.00
The ferritin rapid self test screens at home for low iron stores by measuring ferritin, the protein that stores iron in your body. Low ferritin can explain tiredness, brain fog, breathlessness, brittle nails and hair thinning. It is a common cause of anaemia especially in menstruating people, new mums and those on restrictive diets. This single use kit gives results in minutes from a finger prick blood sample, helping you decide whether to seek a formal lab test and speak to a clinician about iron supplementation, dietary changes or investigating the cause of iron loss. The test is presented as a fast screening tool and does not replace a full diagnostic blood panel, but it is a practical first step if you are feeling unusually fatigued or suspect low iron. If your result suggests low ferritin, contact your GP to confirm levels with serum ferritin and a full blood count and to plan safe treatment. Iron dosing and duration need medical guidance, especially in pregnancy or if you have chronic conditions. Discreet, affordable and simple to use, the kit helps you take the guesswork out of persistent tiredness.
