Parental Health Panel (Mum)
Built for mothers of young children (typically 30–48, 0–10y post-baby). Postnatal depletion is well-documented but undermanaged: 5–10% of women develop postpartum thyroiditis (80% risk if TPO+ in late pregnancy, Lazarus 2011); 39% are ferritin-deficient at 14 weeks postpartum (Norwegian cohort); UK Vit D deficiency rates 75–77% with breastfeeding women at 4× risk; lowest-quartile B12 carries 4.53× postpartum depression odds (Bhardwaj 2021). Adds the HPA-axis markers (cortisol + DHEA-S) that capture parental-burnout dysregulation, plus the full female hormone profile to check cycle recovery and early-perimenopause overlap (relevant from 38+).

Questions
How long do results take?+
Most results are reviewed and released within a few days of the lab receiving your sample — typically 1–2 working days. Genetic and specialist panels take longer; your exact turnaround is confirmed when you order.
Can I choose a home kit or a clinic?+
This test is a clinic blood draw, as it needs a venous sample for accuracy. We arrange a convenient appointment for you.
Is a doctor involved?+
Yes. Every result is reviewed by a GMC-registered doctor who signs it off and explains what it means and what to do next. This is never a results-only service.
Is it confidential?+
Completely. Your sample is analysed at a UKAS-accredited (ISO 15189) laboratory, your results are private to your secure portal, and your data is never shared without your consent.
