Know Your Blood Health with a Haemoglobin Test

What is Haemoglobin (Hb)?

Haemoglobin is a protein found in red blood cells (RBCs) that carries oxygen from the lungs to different parts of the body. It also helps transport carbon dioxide back to the lungs for exhalation.

A Haemoglobin (Hb) Test measures the level of haemoglobin in the blood and helps detect anemia, blood disorders, and overall health status.

Why is the Haemoglobin Test Important?

🔹 Detects Anemia (low haemoglobin), which can cause fatigue, weakness, and dizziness.
🔹 Helps diagnose Iron Deficiency, Vitamin Deficiency, or Chronic Diseases.
🔹 Monitors Blood Health in pregnant women, children, and individuals with medical conditions.
🔹 Evaluates response to treatments for anemia and other blood disorders.

Who Should Get a Haemoglobin Test?

✔ Individuals experiencing weakness, dizziness, or pale skin.
✔ Pregnant women for routine health checkups.
✔ People with chronic diseases like kidney disease or diabetes.
✔ Those undergoing cancer treatment or blood-related conditions.
