It is important that you fast before some of our blood tests, as this ensures that your values can be measured correctly and compared to reference values.
Some of the most common blood tests that require fasting are:
- Iron
- Triglycerides
- Testosterone (men)
- And others.
All samples with special guidelines are highlighted - look out for the yellow box
In addition to fasting, there may also be other guidelines for what applies to your blood test, this is clearly shown with a yellow marking on each test of the tests offered by Testmottagningen.se.
Most of our health checks contain markers that require fasting or have a diurnal variation, so it is important that you are aware of what applies to the health test or health check you are about to do.
