About this Package:
The Hair Care Profile for Female is a specialized, high-level investigation into the root causes of hair loss, thinning (alopecia), and balding. Unlike basic packages, this profile digs deep into the Hormonal, Nutritional, and Metabolic factors that control hair growth.
✔ Hormonal Imbalance Check: Screens for PCOS and androgenic issues with Free Testosterone, DHEAS, 17-OHP, FSH, LH & Prolactin.
✔ Iron & Anemia: Goes beyond hemoglobin to check Ferritin (iron storage), essential for hair follicles.
✔ Metabolic Health: Checks Fasting Insulin and Sugar to detect insulin resistance, a major driver of hair loss.
✔ Vital Nutrients: Includes Vitamin D & B12 levels.

Tests Included in This Package (60 Parameters)
1. HORMONAL PROFILE (For PCOS & Thinning)
- Testosterone (Free): Measures active male hormone levels that cause thinning.
- DHEAS (Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate): Checks adrenal gland function and hair loss triggers.
- 17-OHP (17-Alpha-Hydroxyprogesterone): Rules out rare adrenal disorders mimicking PCOS.
- FSH, LH & Prolactin: Evaluates ovarian function, ovulation, and hormonal balance.
2. IRON & ANEMIA STUDIES (Hair Fuel)
- Ferritin: The most critical marker for hair growth (Iron storage).
- Complete Iron Profile: Serum Iron, TIBC, and % Transferrin Saturation.
- Vitamin B12 & Folic Acid: Essential for healthy red blood cells and hair follicles.
3. METABOLIC & DIABETES SCREENING
- Insulin (Fasting): Detects insulin resistance, a major silent cause of hair loss in women.
- HbA1c & Fasting Glucose: Checks for diabetes and average blood sugar control.
4. THYROID & VITAMINS
- Thyroid Profile (T3, T4, TSH): Screens for hypo/hyperthyroidism-related hair fall.
- Vitamin D (25-Hydroxy): Low levels are strongly linked to alopecia (hair loss).
5. GENERAL HEALTH
- Complete Blood Count (CBC): 30 parameters including Hemoglobin, Platelets, and WBCs.
- Lipid Profile: Cholesterol, Triglycerides, HDL, LDL for heart health.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Are there any symptoms of hair loss?
Yes. Beyond visible shedding in your brush or drain, common symptoms include a widening partition line, a thinner ponytail volume, a receding hairline, or the appearance of bald patches on the scalp.

Q2: What are the primary causes of hair loss in females?
The primary causes include genetics (female pattern baldness), hormonal imbalances (PCOS, Thyroid issues), nutritional deficiencies (low Iron, Vitamin D, B12), high stress levels, and certain autoimmune conditions.

Q3: Is hormonal imbalance a reason for hair fall?
Absolutely. It is a major cause. High levels of androgens (like Testosterone and DHEAS), imbalances in Thyroid hormones (TSH), and Insulin resistance (common in PCOS) can all disrupt the hair growth cycle and cause thinning.

Q4: Are some people more at risk of hair fall than others?
Yes. Women with a family history of hair loss, those with PCOS or thyroid disorders, women who have recently given birth, and those experiencing high stress or poor nutrition are at a significantly higher risk.

Q5: What are some easy remedies for hair loss?
While medical treatment is best, easy remedies include improving your diet (more protein and iron), reducing stress through yoga/meditation, avoiding harsh hair chemicals/heat styling, and ensuring you get enough sleep. Addressing the root cause identified by this test is the most effective remedy.

Q6: Why is this package expensive?
This is a premium diagnostic package. It includes specialized and costly hormonal tests (like 17-OHP, Free Testosterone, and Insulin) and nutritional markers (Ferritin, Vitamins) that are not part of standard checkups but are critical for treating hair loss.

Q7: Why do I need to fast for 10-12 hours?
Fasting is mandatory for accurate Insulin, Glucose, and Lipid results. Insulin levels change drastically after eating, and accurate fasting insulin is key to diagnosing insulin resistance.
