Frequently asked questions

Your questions, answered

How is this different from the standard female screen?
This panel adds serum folate and vitamin B12 to the comprehensive female standard screen plus. Folate matters before and during pregnancy, and B12 is commonly low in vegetarians, vegans and people on certain medications.
Do I need to fast before this test?
Because the panel includes glucose, HbA1c and a lipid profile, we may ask you to avoid eating for a few hours beforehand if your appointment is in the morning. Some hormone markers are best timed to your cycle — our team will confirm preparation when you book.
How long do results take?
We process your sample promptly and contact you as soon as your clinician-reviewed results are ready — turnaround varies by test. Every result is reviewed by a clinician.
Do I need a GP referral?
No referral is needed. You can book directly online or by calling 0121 387 3727. Same-week appointments are available 7 days a week, 8am to 8pm.
What happens if a result comes back abnormal?
A clinician reviews every panel before it is released. If something is outside the normal range we explain what it means in plain English and recommend sensible next steps. This test is a screening investigation and is not a substitute for a clinical diagnosis.
Can I claim this on private health insurance?
Self-funded blood tests are usually paid for directly rather than through insurance, as most insurers require a referral first. Call us on 0121 387 3727 and our team will advise.

Understanding your Standard Screen Plus Folic Acid Vitamin B12 Female results

Each result in your Standard Screen Plus Folic Acid Vitamin B12 Female is reviewed by a clinician before release. Below is a plain-English guide to the key markers included in this panel.

Key Biomarkers

This panel assesses the key markers relevant to standard screen plus folic acid vitamin b12 female. Each result is reviewed by a clinician who will flag any values outside the expected range for your age and sex.

Reference Ranges

Reference intervals are population-derived and should be interpreted alongside your symptoms and clinical history — a result within range does not always exclude pathology, and a mildly out-of-range result may be clinically insignificant in isolation.

Reference ranges vary between laboratories and are influenced by age, sex, and other individual factors. This information is for educational purposes only and does not replace a clinical consultation. The Vesey reviews every result before it is released to you.
