Information about Depression plus

Feeling down? Maybe it's just a phase? Feeling down is a part of life, but if it lasts for a long time it can be a sign of depression. Our Depression Plus health check includes analysis for biomarkers and hormones that affect depression and fatigue. This health check is suitable for you who want to take a blood test to rule out the most common deficiencies that affect your energy and hormone levels

What do we analyze?

  • TSH and T4 free: These markers can indicate if you suffer from e.g. hypothyroidism (lack of thyroid hormone). Then you feel depressed, tired or powerless.
  • B12, cobalamin and B9: Lack of these vitamins can be a reason for anemia (lack of blood). Albumin and calcium are related in such a way that a reduction in albumin leads to a reduced calcium value. Calcium disturbance can cause depressive symptoms.

    • Currently, there are no blood tests that can establish a diagnosis for depression. Therefore, it is important to understand that there are other medical problems or factors that can cause depression.

    If negative thoughts and feelings take over everyday life and prevent you from doing what you usually do, then it may be time to seek professional help. Depression is the leading cause of ill health in the world and is one of the most common mental disorders. Depression is a serious condition that can affect anyone.

    A complete blood count (CBC) provides an overview of the composition of the blood and can indicate anemia, infection, or other abnormalities. Blood tests measure levels of red and white blood cells and platelets, which provide important information about oxygen transport, immune defense, and the blood's ability to clot.

    RBC
    Erythrocytes RBC
    Red blood cells erythrocytes are the most common type of blood cells in humans. These are responsible, among other things, for transporting oxygen and removing carbon dioxide from the body.

    EVF
    Hematocrit, EVF
    Hematocrit, EVF, a percentage of red blood cells in the blood, shows oxygen transport and health.

    HBM
    Hemoglobin mass
    Hemoglobin mass is affected by several factors such as number of red blood cells, size and amount of hemoglobin mass in each cell. Higher hemoglobin mass results in better oxygen delivery and reduced fatigue during physical activity.

    HB
    Hemoglobin
    Hemoglobin transports oxygen and carbon dioxide, it is produced in the bone marrow and is important for the body's function and for the diagnosis of diseases.

    PLT
    Platelets
    Thrombocytes, also known as platelets, are cells important for blood clotting. They are produced in the bone marrow and help prevent bleeding by forming blood clots in the event of injury. The platelets attach to the site of injury and form a plug to stop the bleeding and protect the body.

    Blood sugar, or glucose, is the body's primary source of energy and is regulated by hormones such as insulin and glucagon. Balanced blood sugar levels are crucial for energy, metabolism, and overall health. Blood sugar markers are analyzed in the blood to assess the body's glucose metabolism and detect any abnormalities. They can provide important information about insulin resistance, diabetes, and other metabolic conditions.

    GLU

    The kidneys are vital organs that filter the blood, regulate fluid balance, and remove waste products through urine. They play a central role in blood pressure regulation, electrolyte balance, and the production of hormones that affect blood formation and calcium metabolism. Renal markers are analyzed to assess kidney function and detect early signs of kidney disease. They can provide important information about filtration capacity, fluid balance, and any effects on the kidneys.

    K

    The thyroid is a hormone producing gland that regulates metabolism, energy levels, and several important bodily functions. It produces the hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), which affect the heart, muscles, digestion, and temperature regulation. Thyroid markers are tested to assess thyroid function and detect any abnormalities. They can provide important information about hormone balance and identify conditions such as hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism.

    FT4
    T4 Free
    T4 Free is a thyroid hormone that measures the free thyroxine in the blood and plays an important role in body temperature and metabolism. An imbalance may indicate thyroid problems.
