Stress & Hormone Blood Test Package

This package is suitable if you’re experiencing symptoms that may be linked to stress or hormonal imbalance, such as ongoing fatigue, low mood, sleep disturbance, weight changes or changes in menstrual cycle or libido.

The blood tests assess key hormones involved in stress response, thyroid function and sex hormone balance, alongside markers of inflammation and vitamin D status. Together, these results can help build a clearer picture of how stress and hormone levels may be affecting your overall wellbeing, and support informed decisions about next steps.

This package includes:

This blood test measures the level of dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate, a hormone produced mainly by the adrenal glands that serves as a precursor to male and female sex hormones such as testosterone and oestrogen.

The whole blood magnesium blood test measures the total amount of magnesium present within both your blood cells and plasma. Magnesium is an essential mineral involved in muscle and nerve function, heart rhythm regulation, bone health and energy production.

The Cortisol blood test measures the level of cortisol in your body, which is a steroid hormone produced by the adrenal glands that helps to regulate your metabolism, blood pressure, immune response and stress reaction. Your cortisol levels naturally fluctuate throughout the day, typically peaking in the early morning and falling at night.

Vitamin D blood test measures whether you have sufficient, insufficient or deficient vitamin D levels. Vitamin D is essential for helping the body absorb calcium, supporting strong bones and teeth, maintaining muscle function and helping the immune system work properly.

The high-sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP) blood test measures very low levels of CRP in the blood to assess chronic, low grade inflammation, particularly in relation to cardiovascular risk.

This blood test measures the level of free thyroxine (FT4) in your bloodstream. This is a key hormone, produced in the thyroid gland, that regulates metabolism, energy levels and overall hormonal balance.

The Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) Blood Test helps to indicate whether your thyroid is overactive (hyperthyroidism) or underachieve (hypothyroidism).

This blood test measures the total amount of testosterone in the bloodstream. Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone and is also present in females (in smaller amounts).

This blood test measures the amount of oestradiol, the main form of oestrogen in the body, which in females plays a key role in regulating the menstrual cycle, fertility and bone health. In males, smaller amounts of this hormone are also important for bone density and hormonal balance.

The progesterone blood test measures the levels of progesterone, a hormone produced mainly by the ovaries.

Preparing for your blood test

  • Hydrate: Drink plenty of water in the 24 hours before your blood test. This will make the blood draw easier.

  • Make sure the blood draw area is easily accessible: Wear loose clothing that allows access to both arms and hands.

  • If you're on anticoagulant medication, take it after the appointment: If this is not possible, you can take it before the appointment, if it's absolutely essential.

  • Let our clinic team know if you are nervous about needles: They will make sure you're calm and comfortable and do everything they can to make your blood draw quick and simple.

Frequently Asked Questions

It is not unusual for some bleeding to occur under the skin following your blood test and sometimes this can extend a little further around the puncture site.  If this causes you concern, check with your practice nurse. 

Sometimes we cannot get a blood sample from you. This can be for many reasons, such as not being hydrated enough, feeling cold or having another blood test recently. We will always offer you another appointment so we can try again.
