The Haemoglobin Estimation Test measures the levels of haemoglobin (Hb), a crucial protein in red blood cells responsible for carrying oxygen from the lungs to the body’s tissues and organs. Maintaining normal haemoglobin levels is essential for overall health, as deviations can indicate conditions like anemia or polycythemia vera. This test provides valuable insights into an individual’s health and helps detect underlying conditions related to abnormal haemoglobin levels.

Abnormal haemoglobin levels, whether high or low, can pose health risks: Low haemoglobin: May indicate anemia, nutritional deficiencies (iron, B12, folate), chronic kidney disease, or hypothyroidism. Symptoms include fatigue, dizziness, and shortness of breath. High haemoglobin: Can result from dehydration, smoking, living at high altitudes, or conditions like polycythemia vera, potentially leading to complications such as blood clots. Regular monitoring through the Haemoglobin Estimation Test ensures timely diagnosis and management of these conditions.
