Clinical significance

A serum iron test measures how much iron is in your serum. The serum iron test can reveal abnormally low or high blood iron levels.

The serum iron of a healthy, adult, non-pregnant woman lies between 13 and 27 µmol/L and 14-32 μmol/L for a male.

Abnormally high iron serum levels may mean you've consumed too much iron, vitamin B-6, or vitamin B-12. High levels of iron may indicate: hemolytic anemia or hemolysis: your body doesn't have enough healthy red blood cells. liver conditions: such as hepatic necrosis (liver failure) and hepatitis.

Iron deficiency without anemia can occur when a person has a normal hemoglobin, but below normal serum ferritin and/or transferrin saturation. Iron deficiency with anemia can occur when a person has low values of both serum ferritin and hemoglobin.

Iron deficiency can be the result of numerous and multiple causes. These fall into two broad categories: an increased need for iron and/or decreased intake or absorption of iron. Abnormally high iron serum levels may mean you've consumed too much iron, vitamin B-6, or vitamin B-12. High levels of iron may indicate: hemolytic anemia or hemolysis: your body doesn't have enough healthy red blood cells, as well as liver conditions: such as hepatic necrosis (liver failure) and hepatitis.

My journey back to health with Healsens. Thank you!!

That's when I turned to a nutritionist and ordered a blood test through Healsens. … Four months later, I retested. My biological age dropped to 24—nearly a decade younger than my real age.

Useful app to track analytics and 2nd opinion

It helps me track main parameters, understanding what do they mean and correlations, and make critical analysis to make preventative changes. Hope too see new fichas soon!

Everything is great! Excellent app! It's very convenient for storing all your test results! The only thing I wish was that you could record blood pressure readings for both arms, as this is sometimes important for blood pressure monitoring.

A useful app. It motivates me to lead a healthy lifestyle and monitor my diet. After the test results, I decided to change my diet – I cut out flour and chocolate. I lost 2 kg in about a week. We'll see how the test results look over time.
