It is designed for adults who have symptoms suggestive of low iron or who want to monitor their iron status. Consult a healthcare professional if testing for children.

Follow the instructions in the kit. A sterile lancet is used to collect a small drop of blood from your fingertip for analysis.

You may test if you have symptoms of low iron (e.g., tiredness, breathlessness, paleness) or if you are at higher risk (e.g., heavy menstrual bleeding, pregnancy, vegetarian/vegan diet). Check the kit instructions for any specific timing guidance.

Results are typically available within the timeframe stated in the kit instructions once the sample is processed.

Your result will indicate whether your iron status is within a normal range or suggestive of insufficiency or deficiency. Low levels may warrant a clinical review and follow-up tests by a healthcare professional.

At-home kits provide useful insight but are not a definitive clinical diagnosis. If results suggest low iron or if symptoms are significant, formal blood tests and clinical assessment are advised.

Yes, but follow guidance in the instructions and consider discussing repeated testing with a healthcare professional.

Discuss your results with your GP, pharmacist, or another healthcare provider. They can advise on further testing, diet changes, or iron supplementation if appropriate.
