⚖️ Hormone Testing at Esculap Health Centre

Hormones play an important role in many processes in the body — from thyroid function and metabolism to reproductive health and menopause.

When hormone levels change, the symptoms can be varied. Hormone blood tests can provide valuable information and help investigate possible hormonal changes.

🔍 What can hormone testing include?
Depending on your symptoms and individual needs, testing may include:
🔹 Thyroid hormones — to assess thyroid function
🔹 Female s*x hormones — when investigating menstrual, reproductive or other hormone-related concerns
🔹 Male s*x hormones — to assess relevant hormonal changes in men
🔹 Menopause-related hormone profiles — when symptoms or changes may be associated with perimenopause or menopause
🔹 Prolactin — where clinically appropriate
🔹 Cortisol and other relevant markers — depending on your symptoms and medical history

📋 When might hormone testing be considered?
Hormone tests may be useful when investigating:
✔️ Changes in menstrual cycles
✔️ Menopause-related symptoms
✔️ Reproductive health concerns
✔️ Symptoms associated with thyroid function
✔️ Other suspected hormonal changes

🩺 Which hormone tests do you need?
There is no single hormone panel suitable for everyone.
The most appropriate tests depend on your symptoms, age, medical history and, for some female hormone tests, the stage of your menstrual cycle.
Our team can advise you on the appropriate testing and whether any specific timing or preparation is required.

❤️ At Esculap Health Centre, we provide professional and confidential laboratory testing tailored to your individual health needs.

🌸 Gynaecological Ultrasound at Esculap Health Centre

A gynaecological ultrasound is a safe, non-invasive diagnostic examination used to assess the female reproductive organs and investigate a wide range of gynaecological concerns.

🩺 What does the examination assess?
🔹 Uterus — size, shape and structure�
🔹 Endometrium — the lining of the uterus�
🔹 Cervix�
🔹 Ovaries — size, structure and possible changes�
🔹 Surrounding pelvic structures

A gynaecological ultrasound may help identify or monitor conditions such as ovarian cysts, uterine fibroids and other structural changes.

📋 When may a gynaecological ultrasound be recommended?

It may be helpful if you experience:
✔️ Pelvic or lower abdominal pain�
✔️ Heavy, painful or irregular periods�
✔️ Bleeding between periods�
✔️ Postmenopausal bleeding�
✔️ Changes in your menstrual cycle�
✔️ Suspected ovarian cysts or fibroids�
✔️ Fertility-related concerns�
✔️ A need to monitor a previously identified gynaecological condition

🌿 How is the ultrasound performed?

Depending on your symptoms and clinical needs, the examination may be performed:
🔹 Transabdominally — the ultrasound probe is moved over the lower abdomen.
🔹 Transva**nally — a specially designed probe is gently inserted into the va**na to provide more detailed images of the uterus, endometrium and ovaries.

In some cases, both approaches may be used to obtain the information required.
The examination does not use ionising radiation and is generally quick and well tolerated.

❤️ At Esculap Health Centre, we provide professional, confidential and patient-centred care, with time to discuss your health concerns and understand the next steps.

🧪 BLOOD TESTS AT ESCULAP HEALTH CENTRE

Blood tests can provide valuable information about your general health and help investigate symptoms such as persistent tiredness, weakness, unexplained weight changes, hair loss, frequent infections or hormonal concerns.

At Esculap Health Centre, we offer a range of private blood tests for adults, tailored to your symptoms, medical history and individual health needs.

Today we'll focus your attention in such blood tests as Complete Blood Count (CBC) and Biochemical Tests.

🔹 Full Blood Count (FBC)
A Full Blood Count measures the main types of cells in your blood, including red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets.
It may help assess:
✔️ Anaemia and low haemoglobin
✔️ Signs of infection or inflammation
✔️ Possible causes of fatigue or weakness
✔️ Platelet abnormalities
✔️ General blood health

🔹 Biochemistry Profiles
Biochemistry tests assess how different organs and systems are functioning.
Depending on your needs, these may include:
✔️ Liver function tests
✔️ Kidney function tests
✔️ Blood glucose levels
✔️ Cholesterol and lipid profile
✔️ Electrolytes and minerals
✔️ Markers of inflammation
These tests may be recommended as part of a health check or when investigating ongoing symptoms.

📋 Which blood tests do you need?
Not every patient needs the same set of tests. A clinician can help select the most appropriate investigations based on your symptoms, previous results and health concerns.

Some tests may require fasting or specific timing. Our team will explain how to prepare when you book your appointment.

• abnormal liver function tests

• unexplained weight loss
• a palpable abdominal lump or swelling

It is also commonly used for routine monitoring of chronic conditions, follow-up examinations and pre-operative assessment.

📋 How should I prepare?
To ensure the best possible image quality:

💧 You may continue to drink clear water unless advised otherwise.

⏱️ What happens during the examination?
