Hair Loss Blood Test – Private Diagnostic Panel in Birmingham
Causes of Hair loss
Same Day Testing
Hair thinning and hair loss are common concerns that can have underlying medical or nutritional causes. At OneMedicine, our Hair Loss Blood Test helps uncover the reason behind changes in your hair, allowing you to start targeted treatment with confidence.
Why a Blood Test Can Help With Hair Loss
Hair loss isn’t always just cosmetic. It often reflects deeper health issues, including:
Iron deficiency or anaemia
Vitamin D or vitamin B12 deficiency
Thyroid hormone imbalance
Hormonal disturbances
Inflammation or autoimmune triggers
Blood tests identify these factors early, turning guesswork into evidence-based care and helping guide effective, personalised treatment plans.
What Your Hair Loss Blood Panel Includes
What Your Hair Loss Blood Panel Includes
When you book the Hair Loss Blood Test, we assess key markers that are commonly linked to hair thinning:
Full Blood Count (FBC) – checks for anaemia and overall health
Iron and Ferritin – essential for oxygen delivery to hair follicles
Vitamin D and Vitamin B12 – linked to hair health and immune regulation
Thyroid Function Tests – both underactive and overactive thyroid can contribute to hair loss
Zinc and Mineral Levels – support protein synthesis and hair growth
Hormonal Profile – explores androgen levels, SHBG and other hormonal imbalances
Inflammation Markers – such as CRP, which may indicate autoimmune involvement
Together, these results help pinpoint whether hair loss is related to nutritional deficiency, hormonal imbalance, systemic illness, or autoimmune processes.
How the Test Works
- Same-day blood sampling at our Birmingham clinic.
- Rapid lab processing with clear, expert interpretation.
- Follow-up, if required, with Dr Ahmed to explain results and treatment options.
Who Should Consider This Test
This panel may be recommended if you have:
Sudden or progressive hair thinning
Patchy hair loss
Signs of general fatigue or anaemia
Known thyroid or hormonal issues
A family history of hair loss
Even if hair loss seems mild, identifying hidden medical causes early often leads to better outcomes.
